The findings revealed that there is a strong and significant relationship between faculty members' digital literacy and research productivity. This means that the increase in understanding, finding, using, and creating information using digital technologies is positively related to faculty members' ability to conduct, complete, present and publish a research article. Likewise, faculty member's digital competence is strong and significantly correlated to their research productivity, which clearly indicates that as their knowledge, skills and attitudes for working, living and learning in the knowledge society increases, there is also a significant increase in their ability to produce publishable research outputs.
