The design of the study was quantitative and a survey method was used to get the objectives of the study. Three independent institutes of art and design \u2013 the Institute of Art and Culture, the National College of Arts and Design and the Pakistan Institute of Fashion and Design \u2013 were chosen as the research setting of the study. The population of the study was an academic community of three art and design institutes. The questionnaire was distributed to faculty and students of respective institutes and 229 responses were received after follow-up. The findings of the study indicated that both demographic characteristics and technology-related factors influenced the arts and design academic community\u2019s PIM activities. However, the second set of variables \u2013 Internet use, computer knowledge and technology self-efficacy influenced more than demographic variables on PIM activities. Academic role, university and technology self-efficacy appeared significant predictors of all PIM activities. The findings might be helpful for arts and design institutes librarians to make strategies to improve academic community\u2019s personal information management skills. In arts and design institutes, better efficiency in faculty and students\u2019 PIM could be achieved if PIM literacy programmes are designed paying attention to differentials in demographic factors and technology-related factors, as revealed in this study.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/01655515211072299","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,2,3]],"date-time":"2022-02-03T07:16:02Z","timestamp":1643872562000},"page":"1677-1691","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Predictors affecting personal digital information management activities: A hierarchical regression analysis"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"49","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3937-1488","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Alia","family":"Arshad","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Information Management, University of the Punjab, Pakistan"}]},{"given":"Qurat Ul Ain","family":"Saleem","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute for Art and Culture, Pakistan"}]},{"given":"Khalid","family":"Mahmood","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Information Management, University of the Punjab, Pakistan"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,2,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-01655515211072299","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/9780470713181.ch18"},{"key":"bibr2-01655515211072299","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/asi.23117"},{"issue":"1","key":"bibr3-01655515211072299","first-page":"19","volume":"18","author":"Kearns LR","year":"2014","journal-title":"J Async Learn Network"},{"issue":"1","key":"bibr4-01655515211072299","first-page":"107","volume":"7","author":"Shirazi A","year":"2017","journal-title":"MIER J Educ Stud Trend Pract"},{"key":"bibr5-01655515211072299","first-page":"257","volume":"29","author":"Sedghi S","year":"2015","journal-title":"Med J Islam Repub Iran"},{"issue":"2","key":"bibr6-01655515211072299","first-page":"716","volume":"21","author":"Krtali\u0107 M","year":"2016","journal-title":"Inform Res"},{"key":"bibr7-01655515211072299","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1108\/00012531311313970"},{"key":"bibr8-01655515211072299","first-page":"820","volume-title":"Proceedings of the EdMedia + innovate learning","author":"Hardof-Jaffe S"},{"key":"bibr9-01655515211072299","unstructured":"\u015awigo\u0144 M.
