Attitudes towards changes in communications technology : the introducation of teleconferencing / by J.W. Gartrell and Nicole M. Mendenhall.: Co24-3/7-1280-1975E-PDF

"A questionnaire survey was conducted in the regional offices of the Department of Communications in the summer of 1974 to determine the attitudes and perception of managers towards the installation and usage of an audio teleconferencing system. These data were compared with results obtained from a previous survey conducted at headquarters. The following results were obtained: 1) regional respondents indicated more positive attitudes towards the introduction of teleconferencing than headquarters respondents; 2) the perceived need and utility of teleconferencing facilities were higher in the regions than those reported by headquarters respondents; 3) respondents of both samples do not perceive the possible effects of this medium on communication behavior; 4) both samples indicated a need for audio-graphics or audio-visual facilities to conduct their meetings"--Abstract, page 1.
