  • Description: <jats:p> The present research examined sex differences in general computer knowledge and computer anxiety. Survey data about computer knowledge comfort, and interest were collected from 697 students, 579 from a previous study in 2001 at three types of colleges (a four-year liberal arts college, a business college, or a community college). With few exceptions, no differences associated with sex were detected. Implications for the present findings are discussed. </jats:p>
