Gender Roles, Computer Attitudes, and Dyadic Computer Interaction Performance in College Students.

Williams, Sue Winkle; And Others

Sex Roles: A Journal of Research, v29 n7-8 p515-25 Oct 1993

Examines effects of several mediating factors (experimenter and partner sex, sex typing, and past experience) on a computer-interaction task completed by 154 male and 223 female college students in dyads. Computer experience is related to computer experience for all students. Findings support the expected pattern of male advantage but highlight the complexity of sex differences in computer interactions. (SLD)
