Abstract
Little research has been done examining the relation between locus of control and computer literacy. More specific criteria in measuring devices would help to resolve some of the conflicting results that have been observed. The present study used the Multicomponent Assessment of Computer Literacy and the Computer Locus of Control Measure to examine the relation between computer literacy and locus of control. Computer literacy was found to correlate significantly with focus of control. Individual computer literacy subscales including basic skills, application software, awareness, and programming also correlated significantly with locus of control.
