Relationships among vocational interests, gender, previous experience with computers, computer self-efficacy, and math anxiety in predicting computer anxiety
Abstract
dc:descriptionThis study investigated the relationship between computer anxiety and the following variables: vocational personality type, gender, previous experience with computers, computer self-efficacy, and math anxiety. The Computer Anxiety Scale (COMPAS, Oetting, 1983) was used to assess computer anxiety. Vocational interests were measured by the Vocational Preference Inventory (VPI, Holland, 1985e). A measure was developed to assess previous experience with computers and computer self-efficacy. Math anxiety was assessed through use of Betz's (1978) adaptation of the Math Anxiety Scale, which is a scale from the Mathematics Attitudes Scales developed by Fennema and Sherman (1976).
