Although several surveys of attitudes toward computers have been conducted, little is known about attitudes toward specific computer applications. College students (N=203) were surveyed about their attitudes toward computer applications. Results indicated that there are three clusters of computer applications about which respondents hold similar attitudes: quantitative (e.g., processing skills); decision making (e.g., diagnosing medical problems); and record keeping (e.g., storing information about criminals). Students were favorable toward quantitative and record-keeping applications but rejected decision-making applications, especially those involving decisions traditionally made by psychologists. Experience with computers and perceptions of the computer as effecient, humanizing, and enjoyable correlated significantly with attitudes toward specific applications. Locus of control and interpersonal trust were not related to attitudes. The findings suggest that the values brought to bear on a decision may depend upon the nature of the computer application and that psychologists in particular should be concerned about the extent to which, in the interests of economy and efficiency, they may contribute to an individual's feelings of dehumanization.
