Studies that address the problems associated with Computer anxiety are abundant: however, fewer Studies took into account multivariate nature of the construct. Moreover. studies focusing on high school students are even more limited. Thus, the present Study investigated the multivariate effects of gender, ownership, and the frequency of computer use on computer anxiety levels, after controlling for the possible effects of trait anxiety among 715 Turkish high School students. The Computer Anxiety Scale and the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory were used to assess computer anxiety and state and trait anxiety levels, respectively. A 2 X 2 X 3 between-subjects factorial multivariate analysis of covariance was used on three dependent variables that are the three dimensions of computer anxiety: Affective Anxiety, Damaging Anxiety, and Learning Anxiety. Independent variables are gender, ownership (i.e., yes or no), and the frequency of computer use (i.e., everyday, several times a week, or once a week or less). Results showed a significant covariate effect of trait anxiety, significant main effects for gender, ownership, and the frequency of computer use on the dependent variables. No three-way or two-way interaction was detected, After the descriptive and comparative analyses, specific suggestions were provided based on the results.

Cognitive analysis of experts' and novices' concept mapping processes: An eye tracking study
Dogusoy-Taylan, Berrin; Çağıltay, Kürşat (Elsevier BV, 2014-07-01)
The goal of this study was to explore how designated experts (subject experts with extensive experience in science education and concept mapping) and novices (pre-service teachers) establish concept map (CM) development processes while considering their cognitive processes. Two experiments were conducted in which eye-tracking, written, and verbal data were collected from 29 novices and 6 subject matter experts. The results showed that despite some similar strategies, novices and experts followed different p...
Psychometric Properties of a Turkish Version of the Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale
Ruganci, R. Neslihan; Gençöz, Tülin (Wiley, 2010-04-01)
This study aimed to examine the psychometric properties of the Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS; developed by Gratz & Roemer, 2004) in a Turkish sample. For this purpose, first, the factor structure of the scale was examined with a sample of 338 university students, and an identical factor structure with the original scale was obtained with the exclusion of a single item. Following the confirmation of the 6-factor structure of the scale with the current Turkish sample, the whole scale's and it...
Does Internet use reflect your personality? Relationship between Eysenck's personality dimensions and Internet use
Tosun, Leman Pinar; Lajunen, Timo (Elsevier BV, 2010-03-01)
The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between three Eysenckian personality dimensions - psychoticism, extroversion and neuroticism - and the Internet use. A sample of 427 Turkish university students completed the Eysenck's Personality Questionnaire, an Internet survey which contained questions about interpersonal motives for Internet use and a scale for measuring the tendency for expressing one's "true" self on the Internet. The results indicated that psychoticism was the only personalit...
Exercise interventions and their effects on physical self-perceptions of male university students
Ozdemir, Recep Ali; Celik, Ozgur; Asci, F. Huelya (Wiley, 2010-01-01)
The purpose of the present study was to examine the effects of 12-week exercise interventions on physical self-perceptions of male university students. The study also aimed to investigate the relationships between the changes in physical self-perceptions and the changes in some physiological measures after 12-week exercise programs. Forty-eight male university students aged from 19 to 25 years were enrolled in this study. Participants were randomly and equally assigned to swimming, running, cycling and cont...
Time-frequency analysis of visual evoked potentials for interhemispheric transfer time and proportion in callosal fibers of different diameters
Ulusoy, İlkay; Halıcı, Uğur; EROĞLU, canan; Leblebicioğlu, Mehmet Kemal (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2004-04-01)
This study is an extension of the experimental research of Nalcaci et al., who presented 16 subjects with a reversal of checkerboard pattern as stimuli in the right visual field or left visual field and recorded EEG at O1, O2, P3, and P4. They applied the chosen bandpass filters (4-8, 8-15, 15-20, 20-32 Hz) to the VEPs of subjects and obtained four different components for each VEP. The first aim of this study is to improve the previous report using some methods in time-frequency domain to estimate interhem...
