本文旨在比較中、美兩國師範生對電腦之態度。研究樣本共419名,其中303名來自臺灣,而116名來自美國。選用之研究工具為Loyd及Gressard(1984)所設計之「電腦態度量表」。本量表共分為三個項目:電腦焦慮、電腦信心、及電腦喜愛度。研究結果顯示,兩國師範生間在三個項目中皆無顯著差異。不過,在「國家」與「性別」,以及「國家」與「電腦經驗」等變項,卻發現有顯著的互動關係。
The study was conducted to compare the attitudes toward computers between preservice teachers in America (n=116) and Taiwan (n=303). The results indicate that there were no significant differences between these two samples on three computer attitude subscales (i.e., computer anxiety, computer confidence, and computer liking). However, two significant interactions, country by gender, and country by computer experience, suggest some interesting educational differences between these two countries.
