چکیده
زمینه و هدف: این پژوهش به بررسی وضعیت سواد اطلاعاتی دانشجویان تحصیلات تکمیلی دانشگاه کردستان و ارتباط آن با محیط­های اطلاعاتی مورد استفاده­ی آنها می­پردازد.

روش پژوهش: پژوهش پیمایشی و از نوع توصیفی- همبستگی است. جامعه­ی آماری 1977 نفر دانشجوی کارشناسی ارشد دانشگاه کردستان است و حجم نمونه 321 نفر است که با روش نمونه­گیری طبقه­ای تصادفی انتخاب شده­اند. داده‌ها با استفاده از پرسشنامه­ای شامل دو بخش برای شناسایی انواع محیط­های اطلاعاتی و مهارت‌های سواد اطلاعاتی دانشجویان مورد مطالعه گردآوری شده است و با استفاده از آمار توصیفی و استنباطی تحلیل شده است.

یافته‌ها: سواد اطلاعاتی دانشجویان تحصیلات تکمیلی دانشگاه کردستان در همه مهارت‌های سواد اطلاعاتی بالاتر از متوسط بوده و مطلوب است. بررسی رابطه بین متغیرهای تحقیق نشان می‌دهد که بین محیط­های اطلاعاتی دانشگاهی و سواد اطلاعاتی رابطه­ مثبت و قوی وجود دارد. همبستگی بین محیط­های اطلاعاتی علمی با سواد اطلاعاتی مثبت و مطلوب و بین محیط‌های اطلاعات عمومی و مهارت‌های سواد اطلاعاتی مثبت و متوسط است. بین مهارت اول و دوم سواد اطلاعاتی با محیط‌های اطلاعاتی، رابطه‌ای منفی و معکوس؛ بین مهارت سوم و چهارم با محیط‌ها رابطه­ای مثبت و مستقیم بوده و رابطه­ی بین مهارت­ پنجم با محیط­های اطلاعاتی منفی و معکوس اما معنادار نیست. بنابراین بین سه بعد نیازهای اطلاعاتی، اولویت با نیازهای اطلاعاتی دانشگاهی و سپس علمی است اما نسبت به نیازهای اطلاعاتی عمومی غفلت و کوتاهی شده است.

نتیجه‌گیری: مقاله به دلیل شناسایی سواد اطلاعاتی و فایده‌اش در شناخت رابطه سواد اطلاعاتی و محیط‌های اطلاعاتی جامعه پژوهش و برنامه‌ریزی مربوط ارزشمند است.
