Description
This study presents a conceptual and empirical review of Internet self-efficacy (ISE). It starts by conceptually reviewing ISE, its definitions, and dimensions. Second, it empirically meta-analyzes 213 studies, and aggregates results across 215 independent samples. The results suggest that ISE plays a key role in the adoption and use of Internet tools, how individuals utilize eCommerce, and how we train individuals. In addition, the results suggest that the type of system utilized and the culture in which the study takes place may affect the strength of the relationship between ISE and variables of interest to the researcher. The consistency of the findings also suggest that it is time for the field to move beyond studies that focus on adoption and use of the Internet and to tackle the more complex questions of how ISE may contribute to or mitigate issues such as political engagement, cyberbullying, and misinformation.
