摘要
The research gathered 77 teachers' responses about their own perceived computer expertise, computer self-efficacy, Internet attitude and computer-anxiety. A multiple regression analysis showed that low computer self-efficacy predicts anxiety toward computers, whereas this is not the case of low computer-expertise or low Internet attitude. Hence, psychological treatments should aid computer-anxious people to modify their negative perceptions toward computers and to discover the profitable potentialities of technologies, more than increasing their effective computer expertise or feelings toward the Internet.
