SUMMARYAn instrument that can efficiently measure individual competency of IT applications (ICITA) is presented. It allows an organization to develop and manage the IT application capability of individuals working in an enterprise IT environment. The measurement items are generated from the definition and major components of individual competency of IT applications. The reliability and validity of the instrument construct are verified by factor and correlation analysis. A 15-item instrument is proposed to efficiently measure individual competency of IT applications and the instrument will contribute to the improved ICITA of human resources working in an enterprise IT environment. key words: individual competency, IT applications, measurement item, measurement instrument
We developed measures for an end-user e-Business competency are developed from major components of general competency. By performing factor analysis and reliability analysis on the developed measurement items through a pilot test, we proposed a 16-item tool that can measure an end-user's e-Business competency in an e-Business environment. We confirmed the successful application of the tool was confirmed by applying it to measuring e-Business competency of end-users in an enterprise with an e-Business environment.
