Abstract

The objective of this study is to analyze the factors that influence the behavior of use of information search and retrieval resources in the teaching-learning process, by 320 university students nationwide from a private university in Chile. The methodology is located in a non-experimental design, quantitative approach, descriptive, correlational and cross-sectional. The proposed model is based on the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology. The analyzes in the Smart-PLS software support that the research model presents a favorable validity and reliability of the measurement scales and an adequate global adjustment. The greatest finding is the influence of information literacy as a facilitating condition for the use of scientific information search resources by university students with careers in the Health area at the national level.
