Description
Summary:Related literature review evidence that self-control and attention have strong relationship. Despite a rich body of literature on self-control and attention, few studies have analyzed the relationship between self-control and CPA as a new phenomenon emerging with the intensive use of technology. Relationship between CPA and self-controls has been analyzed in this study. This correlation study conducted with 55 prospective teachers, CPA Survey and BSCS have been used. Pearson correlation coefficient, t-test and descriptive statistics used in data analysis. To the results, it was determined that the self-control abilities of prospective teachers were high whereas CPA levels were low. It was found that the CPA levels of the prospective teachers decreased, and self-control abilities increased as technology use increased. Contrary to common belief, no significant relationship was found between CPA and self-control as a result of Pearson correlation.
