| Research Abstract |
The present researches were designed to investigate the relationship between the computer anxiety and school adjustment in children. Additionally, the relationship between the perceived competence and computer attitude was also studied. Prior to the research, children's attitude toward computer and computer aided instruction were asked. In study 1, computer anxiety scale for children (CASC) was developed. Using the CASC, correlational relation between children's computer anxiety and their school adjustment was explored. Results indicated that the CASC was to be of valid and reliable. No significant correlation between two variables was, however, found. In study 2, computer anxiety and the perceived competence in children were measured to explore the relations between those two variables. Results showed that correlation between competence of learning and computer anxiety was significant. Those findings implied that children's attitude toward computer would be related to general perceived competence.
