The business computer self-efficacy (BCSE) scale is potentially an important tool for researchers studying business students and professionals, but it needs to be validated for use. Content validity was established by Stephens and Shotick (2002). This research analyzes the scale under both criterion-related and construct validation. The scale is compared to a similar scale that has already been validated through research (Murphy, Coover & Owen, 1989). Intercorrelational patterns are examined among these two scales designed to measure the same construct (computer self-efficacy). The results reveal that the two scales are highly correlated. Additionally, the scale is used to demonstrate that it can be used to choose the appropriate type of computer training. Research theorizes that low computer self-efficacy will lead individuals to circumvent experiences with computer technology (Stephens & Shotick, 2002). This article provides evidence that subjects with low computer self-efficacy will avoid interacting with computer technology when given a choice. The Business Computer Self-Efficacy Scale is appended. (Contains 1 figure and 4 tables.)
