Self-concept related to information and communication technology: Scale development and validation

Competence-related self-concepts (i.e., an individual's self-perceived competence in general and specific domains) are important predictors of performance, behavior, motivation, and well-being in different areas of life. With growing digitalization, self-concept (SC) related to the use of infor...

With growing digitalization, self-concept (SC) related to the use of information and communication technology (ICT) is a focus of research across disciplines.
