“…Other similar findings from Al-Tannir et al (2018) also showed that training programs result in a marked increase in research knowledge and skills of the participants who were medical students. In the study of Reflianto (2017), the participants exhibited significant improvements after the training program on processing quantitative research data. Workshops that teach how to acquire knowledge from prior studies have been shown to improve basic research knowledge (Abdulghani et al, 2014;Mullan et al, 2014).…”

This paper aims to assess the effectiveness of research self-efficacy short-term information technology (IT) skills training intervention administered to 3rd year and 4th year undergraduate students at three provincial Cambodian universities. The training intervention was conducted at the universities' computer centers where the internet could be accessed. The training lasted three weeks for 60 hours in total and covered topics such as using statistical analysis software, Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs), and referencing software. The participants were 461 undergraduate students at universities during the 2018 academic year. The survey method used for this study was based on the “Research Self-Efficacy Scale” by Phillips and Russell (1994), which was administered before and after the training. The research used descriptive statistics and paired sample t-test for data analysis. The findings of the study revealed that the participants’ research self-efficacy perceptions increased after conducting the intervention. The results showed that there was a significant increase in mean score after intervention based upon a 5-point scale from 2.10 (SD = 0.68) before the intervention to 3.57 (SD = 0.54) afterward. These findings suggest that IT training intervention is beneficial for undergraduate students at provincial universities in Cambodia resulting in an improvement in research self-efficacy.

“…According to Arkkelin (2014), within the academic and business circles, SPSS is a common choice for understanding and interpreting research results. Reflianto (2017) wrote that the use of software tools such as SPSS in training activities increased data processing capability in quantitative research activities.…”
