An investigation of computer literacy as a function of attitude
ACM SIGCSE Bulletin, 1981A survey of first and second year university students reveals the acceptance of a number of misconceptions about computers and computer applications, some of which indicate the presence of negative attitudes. A statistical analysis of the survey supports the proposition that previous computer experience is not always a corrective for unreasonable or ...

Gender, Internet and computer attitudes and experiences
Computers in Human Behavior, 2001Abstract It is widely assumed that participation by females on the Internet is hampered by their attitudes towards computers, which in turn is reflective of their attitudes towards new technology. Research generally supports that females have less overall experience with computers and are more likely than males to have negative attitudes towards ...

Students' attitudes toward computers: Validation of a computer attitude scale for 16–19 education
Computers & Education, 1997There is a strong need for both educators and researchers to be aware of students' attitudes toward using and interacting with computers in 16-19 education (i.e. year levels 12-14)--but as yet little work has been carried out in this area. This article therefore describes the development of an instrument for measuring the attitudes toward computers of ...

Students' attitudes toward books and computers
Computers in Human Behavior, 2005Many studies have compared paper and computers using objective performance measures. The aim of the study reported here was to extend this body of work by considering subjective measures. A questionnaire survey of 217 people showed that books were perceived more favorably than computers on all of the affective scales of Kay's Computer Attitude Measure (

Attitudes about computing in postsecondary graduates
Proceedings of the Fourth international Workshop on Computing Education Research, 2008Computing educators may hope that postsecondary courses both convey content and also give students a new perspective on computing. In the study described in this paper, a sample of students about to graduate with their postsecondary degrees wrote about their relationship with computing and what influenced that relationship.

International Journal of Man-Machine Studies, 1977In the evaluation of techniques for the automatic acquisition of medical history data, the attitudes of patients, the “users”, are of the utmost importance. While patients' opinions have been sought in several studies, there has previously been no objective measurement of attitudes in this field. In the present paper, the development and evaluation of

The goal is to endow an ECA with the capacity to express different interpersonal attitudes depending on the interaction context.

An inquiry into computers in design: attitudes before–attitudes after
Design Studies, 2001This paper reports on the findings of an empirical investigation into the use of the computer as the only design medium. A group of students took part in an experiment to design a studio for a graphic designer on the computer. Student attitudes towards the design process were assessed at two conditions: before using the computer and after using the ...
