Abstract: This is an exploratory study to develop a scale to measure attitude towards computers and test some hypotheses about relationship between some background factors and personality variables with perception of and attitude towards computers. Data were collected only from two units. Since there was no difference in the trend, pooled data have been analysed. Perception of computers was studied by using two methods. Preferred areas of the use of computers and reasons for non-use of computers were also studied. No relationship was found between personality factors and perception of and attitude towards computers, excepting in the case of some aspects of self-disclosure and ambiguity tolerance.
