Abstract

The present study intended to study the state of information seeking among 158 graduate students in UNIVERSITY OF TEHRAN and examine its correlation with students’ EPISTEMOLOGICAL BELIEFS. A survey employing two sets of questionnaires was carried out. One set was devised by the author while the other was Schommer's 63-item EPISTEMOLOGICAL BELIEFS questionnaire. Findings indicated that there is a positive significance at 0.05 level between knowledge organization and students’ information relevancy judgments. Furthermore there is a positive significance at 0.001 level between knowledge management and time allocation. Learning speed and internalization of past knowledge however displayed a negative significance at 0.01 level. No significance was observed among the rest of EPISTEMOLOGICAL BELIEFS aspects with other aspects of INFORMATION SEEKING BEHAVIOR.
