The data collection tools were Online Information Searching Strategy Inventory, Internet Information Pollution Scale and Cognitive Absorption Scale. In the study, it was found that the scores of the students related to these variables were above the average. It was also found in the study that there were low levels of positive correlations between the students’ level of cognitive absorption and encountering information pollution on the Internet and online information searching strategies. Another finding was that male students’ average score for online information searching strategies was higher than that of the female students. Furthermore, the common interaction between department and grade level variables based on the Internet information pollution scores was statistically significant.
