Testing the Factor Structure Invariance of a Computer Attitude Scale over Two Grouping Conditions.

Bandalos, Deborah; Benson, Jeri

Educational and Psychological Measurement, v50 n1 p49-60 Spr 1990

The Computer Anxiety Scale was tested for invariance over the grouping conditions of males/females and graduate/undergraduate status. Subjects included 187 undergraduates and 188 graduates; analyses were conducted on 136 males and 236 females. Results indicate that the construct of computer anxiety appears to be multidimensional with highly correlated factors. (TJH)
