Journal of ManagementA Path Analytic Study of Individual Characteristics, Computer Anxiety and Attitudes toward Microcomputers
465 Citations1989Magid Igbaria, Saroj Parasuraman
A path model of individual difference variables as antecedents of computer anxiety and attitudes toward microcomputers among managers provided moderate support and results showed education is negatively related to computer anxiety, and external locus of control and math anxiety contribute to increased computer anxiety.
The American Journal of SurgeryLearning style influences student examination performance
126 Citations1998Thomas G. Lynch, Nancy N. Woelfl +2 more
The data demonstrate that performance on objective measures of academic achievement is influenced by learning style, while application of that knowledge in the management of clinical situations may require additional skills beyond those measured.
Computers and Biomedical ResearchThe attitudes of medical and paramedical personnel toward computers
93 Citations1972Terry S. Startsman, Robert E. Robinson
Results showed that all groups are aware of the advanced capabilities of computers; interns, nurses and ancillary personnel expressed least willingness to use data processing systems while medical faculty, medical students and medical record librarian students were most receptive.

The project was designed to provide a framework for a comprehensive user evaluation of both software packages and hypertext environments, and cognitive styles were demonstrated to be a significant component of individual behaviour within the hypertext environment.
International Journal of Man-Machine StudiesSome behavioural factors affecting the training of naive users of an interactive computer system
50 Citations1975Tierney Kennedy
It is shown that it is possible, with a self-teaching computer system, to train “computer-naive” clerical staff to a high degree of competence in a very small number of short training sessions.
Medical EducationLearning preferences of medical students
43 Citations1994Stanley Paul, M. Bojanczyk +1 more
Results of this study showed students preferred teacher‐structured learning experiences dealing with concrete and applied tasks, rather than abstract tasks.
Behavior Research MethodsA factor analytic study of the psychological implications of the computer for the individual and society
36 Citations1983Morton Wagman
Measurement procedures including the development and testing of the Cybernetics Attitude Scale and a factor analytic study of the collected data are presented and these findings illumine the problem of the meaning of the computer for the individual and society.

31 Citations1988Faye H. Dambrot, S. Marc Silling +1 more
While men in general had higher mathematics aptitude and computer aptitude, women received higher course grades in the computer language course and students who failed the course were significantly lower in computeraptitude, computer experience, mathematics aptitudes, mathematics experience, and high school GPA.
PubMedLearning preferences, values, and student satisfaction.
27 Citations1985Roann Barris, Gary Kielhofner +1 more
The undergraduates expressed significantly greater satisfaction with their education than the graduate occupational therapy students; for each of the three groups educational satisfaction correlated with a different set of values or learning preferences.
