I have been following the Project Information Literacy (PIL) study http://projectinfolit.org/ for some time.  Much of the information is now starting to be put together in what may be usable components.  The link above tells more about PIL and it's research study.  Templeton University has put together a very nice guide<http://guides.temple.edu/improving_research> (http://guides.temple.edu/improving_research)  to help faculty quickly understand the top findings coming out of Project Information Literacy research reports so that they can take advantage of the research to help improve their students' research skills.  The survey used included 8,000 students from 25 U.S. college campuses, additional research was completed using individual course-related assignments and student discussion groups.

Hope you find this useful.
