- 2. Abstract In this research I will do searching about the fears and the concerns of using a computer for some people who do not know much of the computer problems and how to be totally safe with it.
- 3. INTRODUCTION The problem of computer phobia or techno phobia has been widely researched over the last few decades, and in spite of consistent findings, a series of myths have been perpetuated. For example, it was commonly and erroneously believed that women are more computer phobic than men, that older people are more computer phobic than younger people and that students are less computer phobic than non-students. Many studies have shown that when previous experience is controlled for, the between group differences disappear. Moreover, it has been found that the percentage of students who can be classified as computer phobic (ranging from low to high), has been around 25%, and this does not differ substantially from the normal population.
- 4. OBJECTIVES What am I trying to achieve? the study has been conducted with following main objectives: - 1- to study the fear of using a computer. 2- to know the treatments of using a computer. 3- finally,to feel safe when using a computer.
- 5. Research Question The research question is about How to treat and find solutions for people who have concerns in using the computer..?

- 7. Technophobia Technophobia Is the fear or dislike of advanced technology. Or complex devices, especially computers. Although there are numerous interpretations of technophobia, they become more complex as technology continues to evolve. The term is generally used in the sense of an irrational fear, but others contend fears are justified.
- 8. Nomophobia The fear of being without a mobile phone stems from addiction. When a person feels physically or mentally dependent on anything, s/he cannot find a way of stopping that addiction. People tend to experience this phobia when they are insecure, or have lack of self-control and discipline, get easily bored or impatient, or have no other recreational hobbies and outlets etc.
- 9. Cyberphobia Cyberphobia is a fear of working with computers. People who have cyberphobia are afraid or not able to learn new technologies. It is a type of specific phobia. It was first used in 1985. While many people feel completely comfortable using computers, navigating the Internet, or installing applications on their phones, others find themselves terrified of these things — they have some degree of cyberphobia.
- 10. Telephonophobia is a reluctance or fear of making or taking? phone calls, literally, "fear of telephones". It is considered to be a type of social phobia or social anxiety. It may be compared to glossophobia, in that both arise from having to engage with an audience, and the associated fear of being criticized, judged or made a fool of.
- 11. Selfie phobia With the popularityof selfies, it's no surprise "selfie phobia"has become widely used. Althoughit has not been verified by professionals, the term has been floating around the Internet. There are various reasons as to why people are selfie phobic. Some may not think they are photogenic,while others may see it as a cry for attentionor a superficial act. NPR suggested a few present-day phobias,and selfie phobic was first on its list.
- 12. Treatments of the computer phobia Phobias are highly treatable, and people who have them are nearly always aware of their disorder. This helps diagnosis a great deal. Speaking to a psychologist or psychiatristis a useful first step in treating a phobia that has already been identified. If the phobia does not cause severe problems, most people find that simply avoiding the source of their fear helps them stay in control. Many people with specific phobias will not seek treatment as these fears are often manageable. It is not possible to avoid the triggers of some phobias, as is often the case with complex phobias. In these cases, speaking to a mental health professional can be the first step to recovery. Most phobias can be cured with appropriate treatment. There is no single treatment that works for every person with a phobia. Treatment needs to be tailored to the individual for it to work.
- 13. Design First, my decisionsfor Designing this research that I will find data aboutwho do have fears and some anxiety of computer Second, the location would be on the internet websites for collecting informationand time scale research should be about 7 weeks. Third, my research procedures for sources, selecting participantsand analyzing data will be on doing an interview with people and social media. Finally,the method for collecting data is by individual interview, picture story or photo voice and group discussions on websites.
- 14. methodology and procedures Simply, my method for collecting and analysingwould be targeting ages around18 years and above also searching on the best recommended website and make interview at coffee and internet shops.
- 15. Ethical considerations Ethicalconsiderationsduring the evaluationinclude: Informed consent. Voluntary participation. Do no harm. Confidentiality. Anonymity. Only assess relevant components
- 16. Delimitation and limitation of research There is no limitation on this research I suppose because everyone I think wants to have and tell about these important data for our generation. Also, I have delimitation but some boundaries of this topic that I do not take information from someone without his knowing.
