Resumen

The present study aims to analyze the predictive factors of the digital self-efficacy in students from a private university of Lima (Peru) in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic. The sample was 102 university students (92 women (90.2%) and 10 men (9.8%)) between 19 and 40 years old (Mage = 26.39, SD = 7.75). The results show in the analysis with the Student's T the digital self-efficacy is higher in provinces students (Mean = 5.12, p <.01) and lower in the capital city students (Mean = 4.65, p <.05). Then, the correlation analysis shows age, origin place, academic performance and cognitive engagement are related with student digital self-efficacy. Finally, the analysis of multiple lineal regressions between age, origin place, academic performance and cognitive engagement shows only the age predicts positively the digital self-efficacy (β =.28, p<.01).
