Impression Management, Candor, and Microcomputer-Based Organizational Surveys: An Individual Differences Approach.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Rosenfeld, Paul; And Others – Computers in Human Behavior, 1991
A study of employed undergraduate management students was conducted to determine whether responses on computerized surveys are more candid than those on paper-and-pencil scales. Subjects were given either a paper-and-pencil or a computer version of the Job Descriptive Index (JDI) and the Self-Monitoring Scale to measure job satisfaction. (43…

The Effects of Computer-Based Instruction on the Achievement of College Students as a Function of Achievement Status and Mode of Presentation.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Skinner, Michael E. – Computers in Human Behavior, 1990
Describes a study that was designed to demonstrate the effects of computer-based instruction (CBI) on undergraduates' achievement based on achievement status and mode of presentation. Treatments for experimental and control groups are explained, the alternating treatments design (ATD) methodology is discussed, and the personalized system of…

Person- versus Computer-Mediated Feedback.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Kluger, Avraham N.; Adler, Seymour – Computers in Human Behavior, 1993
A controlled experimental study tested the relative effects of computer-mediated and person-mediated feedback on the task performance and motivation of 97 undergraduate students. Results show students prefer computer-mediated feedback, that feedback may reduce motivation, and that person-mediated feedback may debilitate the performance of…

Effectiveness of Computer-Based Instruction: An Updated Analysis.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Kulik, Chen-Lin C.; Kulik, James A. – Computers in Human Behavior, 1991
Presents a meta analysis which examines results of 254 controlled evaluation studies that compared student learning in classes taught with and without computer-based instruction (CBI). Outcome measures are described, statistical analysis and effect size are discussed, and results are reported that show that CBI usually produces positive effects on…

Adapting Text Presentations to Media Attributes: Getting More out of Less in CBI.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Morrison, Gary R.; And Others – Computers in Human Behavior, 1988
Summarizes three research studies on text and screen density variables in a computer based instruction (CBI) lesson. The first two studies investigated the effectiveness of low density text on lessons taught in print and CBI modes; the third study examined learner preferences for different screen densities.

The Use of Small Groups in Computer-Based Training: A Review of Recent Literature.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Stephenson, Stanley D. – Computers in Human Behavior, 1994
Recent work in small-group computer-based training (CBT) reveals that the approach does not necessarily lead to higher achievement. Many of the studies, however, have methodological weaknesses. If proper guidance and structure can be provided to group members, using small group CBT should lead to higher achievement than individual CBT. (Contains…
