Postgraduate medical students' acceptance and understanding of scientific information databases and electronic resources.

Journal Title: Electronic Physician - Year 2016, Vol 8, Issue 3

Abstract

The significance and validity of web-based scientific databases are increasing dramatically in the scientific community. Moreover, a great number of students use these resources without having sufficient and accurate knowledge and understanding. In order for students to use these databases and electronic resources optimally, identifying the factors that affect the understanding and acceptance of these resources seems necessary. The aim of this study was to determine postgraduate medical students' acceptance and understanding of these resources.
