Psychology of Computer Use: XLV. Cognitive Spontaneity as a Correlate of Computer Anxiety and Attitudes toward Computer Use

Abstract

The relationship of cognitive spontaneity with measures of computer anxiety and attitudes toward computer use was investigated in a sample of 178 individuals attending advanced courses in management. As expected, a significant negative relationship between cognitive spontaneity and computer anxiety was found. The relationship remained significant even with statistical control for computer experience. The relationship between cognitive spontaneity and attitudes toward computer use was positive but not significant. The results imply both a direct and an indirect relationship between cognitive spontaneity and computer anxiety. Further, the results support the suggestion that computer anxiety and attitudes toward computer use are related but distinct constructs.
