Computer Training and Individual Differences: When Method Matters.

Harp, Candace G.; Taylor, Sandra C.; Satzinger, John W.

Human Resource Development Quarterly, v9 n3 p271-83 Fall 1998

Interviews were conducted with 263 licensed users of training software, 68 of whom had used computer-based training (CBT), instructor-led training, and video tutorials. Videos were deemed the least useful. Instructor-led training had the most feedback and media richness, but CBT was an effective low-cost alternative. (SK)
