The resulting measure is

a 30-item self-report questionnaire designed to assess

perceptions of the five characteristics of an innovation

found to influence subsequent adoption. Additionally, two

questions ask about intentions to use computerized therapy

in the future.(No reverse scoring)

Items are averaged according to which subscale they belong. Subscales are labeled as follows: RA relative advantage subscale, CMPT compatibility

subscale, CMPX complexity subscale, OB observability subscale, TR trialability subscale, FU future use intentions subscale

Computer Anxiety

The Computer Anxiety Survey consists of 16

statements describing the respondent’s subjective experience when using a computer. Items

such as “I worry about making mistakes on the computer” are rated on a five-point scale

from “Strongly Disagree” to “Strongly Agree”. Items were worded so that agreement could

indicate either positive or negative experiences with computer use. Additionally

Results of performing factor analysis on the 16 statements of the Computer

Anxiety Survey are presented in Table 3. Eight questions loaded strongly on Factor 1

including: I feel anxious whenever I am using computers, I worry about making mistakes on

the computer and I feel tense whenever working on a computer. Six questions loaded

strongly on Factor 2 including: I feel comfortable with computers, I feel content when I am

working on a computer and I feel at ease with computers. While the items in Factors 1 and 2

initially may appear to reflect opposite ends of a continuum, the factor loadings were

distinct, reflecting separate constructs. The last two questions loaded to Factor 3: I would

like to continue working with computers in the future and I wish that computers were not as

important as they are. Based on these results we chose to name Factor 1 ‘Anxiety/Tension’,

Factor 2 ‘Confidence/Contentment’ and Factor 3 ‘Computer Use’.
