Changes in Student Computer Technology Attitudes over Time
This study examined the changes in three aspects of students' attitudes toward computers: (1) appreciative attitudes toward computers, (2) critical attitudes toward computers, (3) attitudes about software usage. Subjects from an Introduction to Business Information Systems course were used for the study. The t-test and ANOVA statistical measures were used to examine attitudes and their changes over a 13-year time span. The results indicate that over time students have become more pessimistic about the impact of computers.
