Abstract
Self efficacy is a term used in psychology, roughly corresponding to a person's belief in their own competence. It has been defined as the belief that one is capable of performing in a certain manner to attain certain goals. It is believed that our personalized ideas of self-efficacy affect our social interactions in almost every way. Understanding how to foster the development of self-efficacy is a vitally important goal for positive psychology because it can lead to living a more productive and happy life. The objective of this study is to show difference of the relationship between user and non-user in smartphone by self efficacy. For this purpose, we propose a research model which consists of 3type' self efficacy. For empirical test of this model, the sample data is collected from employee in a company and divided into two groups by user and nonuser. By multi-group analysis, we show two groups are different from each other in the relationship between user and nonuser of smartphone. Results show difference of the relationship smartphone user and non-user's self-efficacy(self-control self-efficiacy and problem difficulty preference).
