Technology stress on job and health-related outcomes

Abstract

The current study explored the relationship between technostress (complexity, novelty, and availability), job-related outcomes (job performance, job satisfaction, and organizational commitment) and health-related outcomes (psychological well-being). Age and position were also added as potential moderators. The convenience sample (N = 174) was used from a small midwestern university. Qualtrics was used as a survey tool to collect data and SPSS was used to analyze results. Results showed that only complexity was related to job performance and that all other aspects of technostress were not related to job or health-related outcomes. Age and position were also not found to moderate the relationships. Implications and suggestions for future research were also discussed.
