Gender Inequities of Self-Efficacy on Task-Specific Computer Applications in Business
Shotick, Joyce; Stephens, Paul R.
Journal of Education for Business, v81 n5 p269-273 May-Jun 2006
In this article, the authors investigated the impact of evolving technology on gender disparity and the contradictions found in previous research relating to the computing gender gap to determine if certain computer software tasks are gender specific and if those skills represent a gender gap in technology. Based on the social cognitive theory and established methodology of self-efficacy reporting, the authors provide an analysis of gender differences in computing self-efficacy over a variety of technological skills needed in today's business environment. (Contains 2 tables.)
