Extending the nomological network of computational thinking with non-cognitive factors

作者：

Highlights：

• Correlations between CT and non-cognitive variables are investigated.

• CT correlates with self-efficacy perception regarding CT performance (.41).

• CT correlates with Openness (.41), Extraversion (.30), and Conscientiousness (.27).

• 24% of CT variance is explained by personality factors.

• The nomological network of CT is extended and depicted.
