摘要

本研究调查了尼日利亚高等教育机构图书馆员的技术恐惧症和信息与传播技术的使用情况。研究采用了罗森等人开发的计算机焦虑量表 C (CARS-C)、计算机想法调查表 C (CTS-C)和对计算机的一般态度量表 C (GATCS-C)。研究采用问卷调查的方式收集数据。研究发现，年龄较大的图书馆员对技术的恐惧程度较高，对信息与传播技术的掌握程度较低，而年轻图书馆员的情况恰恰相反。研究还发现，根据计算机焦虑等级量表、计算机想法调查和对计算机的一般态度量表，老年和年轻图书馆员的技术恐惧症程度存在明显差异。建议图书馆员参加信息与传播技术培训，以掌握更多的信息与传播技术技能。

Technophobia and ICT usage among Librarians in higher educational institutions in Nigeria

This study investigated technophobia and ICT usage among librarians in higher educational institutions in Nigeria. The study adapted the Computer Anxiety Rating Scale Form C (CARS-C), Computer Thoughts Survey Form C (CTS-C), and General Attitudes Towards Computers Scale Form C (GATCS-C) developed by Rosen et al.. A questionnaire was used to collect data for the study. It was found that while a high extent of technophobia and a low extent of ICT skills were found among the older librarians, the reverse was the case with younger librarians. The study also found a significant difference in the extent of technophobia between older and younger librarians based on the Computer Anxiety Rating Scale, the Computer Thoughts Survey, and the General Attitudes Towards Computers Scale. It was recommended that the librarians should attend ICT training to acquire more ICT skills.
