Title

Gender differences in attitudes toward using computers in libraries : an exploratory study

Source

Library and information science research. 13(1991) no.3, S.267-279

Year

1991

Abstract

Examines sex differences in library anxiety, computer anxiety and using computers for library research anxiety in 40 academically oriented high school seniors for 1 year. Finds boys to have higher library anxiety than girls. Girls have a higher anxiety in the remaining 2 categories involving computers. Both sexes improved in all 3 areas except for girls on the computers for library research. Girls may experience less anxiety when using computers in a non mathematical setting but the detrimental effect of computers may compromise girls' attitudes to computer mediated library research
