Abstract
This paper is primarily concerned with self‐efficacy in the context of information literacy. The focus is first on the concept of self‐efficacy, followed by attainment of self‐efficacy beliefs. Finally, findings of the research, the aim of which was to explore students’ (who enrolled in the Department of Information Management, Hacettepe University, Ankara, Turkey) perceived self‐efficacy for information and computer literacy, are scrutinized. Results of the research indicate no significant year‐to‐year changes, although the students have a positive perceived self‐efficacy for information literacy. Students’ self‐efficacy beliefs regarding information literacy and computers are correlated.
