Abstract
The present study compared the effects of two training methods on computer attitude and performance in a WWW page design program by a field experiment . Results indicated that the instruction-based approach outperformed in the skill-based test of WWW page design functions, whereas the example-based a pproach reported significantly higher computer attitude. An interaction bet ween personal learning style (decomposed into information perception and in formation processing) and training condition was reported. Implications for training interventions are discussed.
