Abstract

Reports from past studies indicated that research on anxiety disorder is not extensive and further investigation is needed using different populations. Besides, psychological intervention for computer anxiety has not been given the required empirical attention. Given this, we investigated the effectiveness of rational emotive behavior education on computer anxiety among primary school teachers enrolled in e-learning. A pure experimental design was used, which helped to randomly assigned recruited 112 primary school teachers to 2 arms (treatment and control groups). The Computer Anxiety Scale was distributed before, immediately after, and 4 weeks after completion of intervention with 12 sessions that were given to the treatment group. The ANOVA results showed that rational emotive behavior education significantly decreased teachers computer anxiety. The mean computer anxiety score among instructors did not significantly differ by group or gender. Therefore, we recommended that computer educators, policymakers, and rational emotive behavior educators should organize rational and emotive-oriented conferences for schoolteachers.
