摘要
The four-dimensional model of attraction to computing is discussed. The model suggesets priorities for cirrucular elements that pull individuals into the field. A survey of 18 possible attraction factors are suggested to investigate why individual choose computing as a profession. The two most influential factors influencing wether or not respondents pursued computing were the sense of accomplishment that comes from solving the problem and using a computer to solve problems.
