Based on a literature review, research comprehensively examining factors influencing thecomputer self-efficacy of individual is rarely seen. Most previous studies have focused on eithera single view point or specific factors. Therefore, we synthesized and sorted out all the studiesreviewed to obtain a better view of the impact factors of computer self-efficacy. The results showthat the factors influencing individual’s computer self-efficacy which have been investigatedinclude gender, age, education level, college major, experience in computing, attitude towardcomputers, computer anxiety, motivation to learn about computers, computer usage, performancein computing, owning a computer, as well as support and encouragement from society. Amongall these factors, gender (47.6%), experience in computing (3 0.2 %), and computer usage (22.2 %)have been examined most frequently. The test of binomial distribution also showed that gender,age, attitude toward computers, computer anxiety, computer experience, computer usage, aswell as social support and encouragement all have significant impacts on individual’s computerself-efficacy. Based on these results, implications and suggestions are given for improving thecomputer self-efficacy of individuals accordingly. |
