Koohang, Alex A.

Library and Information Science Research, v8 n4 p349-53 Oct-Dec 1986

This investigation of the effects of age, gender, college status, and computer experience on students' attitudes toward an online catalog measured student attitudes on three subscales--computer anxiety, computer confidence, and computer liking. Results of analysis of variance showed that computer experience was significantly related to computer anxiety and computer liking. (EM)
