Computer experience and computer anxiety

Computers in Human Behavior, 2003
Abstract In this article two studies are reported that tested the nature of the relationship between computer experience and computer anxiety. In the first study 184 first year psychology students were given a questionnaire that measured their computer experience in terms of e.g.

Computing and Experimenting in Buckling

Civil-Comp Proceedings, 2009
This paper describes a computer program for analyzing the buckling and (initial) post-buckling of prismatic plate structures. Post-buckling behaviour is described in terms of the amplitudes of a limited number of skilfully chosen buckling modes. Experiments were carried out to validate the program. The rarely investigated problem of interaction between

Experiments with computer animation

Proceedings of the 3rd annual conference on Computer graphics and interactive techniques, 1976
Three generally accepted facts are:1. Computers are getting cheap and fast enough to do cost-effective graphics on line and in real time;2. The future of computer graphics is in raster scan;3. Computer animation is emerging as a volatile art form and as a medium for scientific communication.Concurrently, we find computer animation somewhat polluted and

Experience with hybrid computation

Proceedings of the December 4-6, 1962, fall joint computer conference on - AFIPS '62 (Fall), 1962
In recent years, there has been increasing emphasis on the use of electronic analog and digital computers in the fields of science, engineering, and education. Interest has also been generated in computational methods not readily available from either of these classes of computers alone, but rather from the combination of them provided by the so called

Computer simulations as experiments

Synthese, 2008
Whereas computer simulations involve no direct physical interaction between the machine they are run on and the physical systems they are used to investigate, they are often used as experiments and yield data about these systems. It is commonly argued that they do so because they are implemented on physical machines.

Computer Experience of Nurses

2015
This study aimed to identify the computing experience of nurses in southern Brazil, through exploratory survey research. The results, which were obtained from the application of The Staggers Nursing Computer Experience Questionnaire®, were analyzed by statistical tests.

Experiments on Models of Computations and Systems

IEEE Transactions on Electronic Computers, 1967
This paper reports results of experiments on models of computational sequences and models of computer systems. The validity of these models is a step in the evolution of methods for prediction of complex computer system performance. A graph model representing computational sequences was implemented and mapped onto a model of computer systems using ...
