Abstract

Based on ICT, specifically smartphones and their mobile apps, this exploratory study questions the impact of EMIs on employees' perceived stress during workdays. A sample of 15 workers, working at least 3 days a week and divided into one control group (n=5) and one experimental group (n=10), used an EMI application called "Mon Sherpa" for one week. Participants responded to two questionnaires at the beginning of the study: a sociodemographic questionnaire and the PSM-9 (Psychological Stress Measure). They completed the PSM-9 once again in the middle and at the end of the experiment to compare the score's evolution depending on the formed groups. Additionally, semi-structured interviews were conducted with participants of the experimental group (n=9) to identify their perception of the application. The statistical results indicated no effects of the EMIs. However, interviews indicated somatic, behavioral, and cognitive evolution throughout the experiment in the field of stress, anxiety, and invasive thoughts. These conflicting results might be explained by an immediate but not lasting effect of EMIs on work-related stress. It may also be partly explained by some limitations of the study. More cross-disciplinary and larger research is required.
生态瞬间干预对感知工作压力调节策略的影响:基于生态环境下使用的应用程序 "MON SHERPA "的探索性研究
这项探索性研究以信息和通信技术(特别是智能手机及其移动应用程序)为基础,探讨了 EMI 对员工工作日压力感知的影响。15 名每周至少工作 3 天的员工分成对照组(5 人)和实验组(10 人),使用名为 "Mon Sherpa "的 EMI 应用程序一周。研究开始时,参与者回答了两份问卷:一份社会人口调查问卷和 PSM-9(心理压力测量)。他们在实验中期和结束时再次填写 PSM-9,以比较不同组别的得分变化情况。此外,还对实验组的参与者(9 人)进行了半结构式访谈,以了解他们对应用程序的看法。统计结果表明,EMI 没有产生任何影响。然而,访谈显示,在整个实验过程中,参与者在压力、焦虑和侵入性思维方面的躯体、行为和认知都发生了变化。这些相互矛盾的结果可能是因为电磁干扰对工作压力产生了直接但不持久的影响。研究的某些局限性也可能是部分原因。需要进行更多跨学科和更大规模的研究。
