摘要：
The psychometric characteristics of the 20-item computer anxiety scale (CAS) were examined in a Nigerian sample of 181 preservice teachers (62 men and 119 women). Results indicated a two-factor solution, consistent with those from other studies. The two factors accounted for 41.6% of the total variance in the solution. The internal consistency reliability for the entire scale (. 89) was considered conceptually meaningful. This result suggests that computer anxiety construct, as measured by CAS, appears to be culturally and contextually invariant. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
