Abstract

This study validates an instrument used to measure technostress creators, technostress support mechanisms, and their negative impact on students' satisfaction and performance. A research model is developed based on the stimulus, organism, and response model to analyse the mediating effect of technostress creators and understand how technostress inhibitors influence students' satisfaction and their performance. A group of 206 students from India pursuing higher education were selected as a sample to validate this model. Technostress creators act as a mediator between technostress inhibitors and students' satisfaction and their performance, while technostress inhibitors positively influence student satisfaction and performance indirectly. Insights from this study will enable higher education institutions to identify the students who are finding technology-based education problematic and help preserve their wellbeing by following supportive strategies to reduce stress and enhance the students' active participation in technology-based education.

技术支持教学的阴暗面:技术压力对学生表现的影响

本研究验证了一种测量技术压力创造者、技术压力支持机制及其对学生满意度和绩效的负面影响的工具。基于刺激、机体和反应模型，建立了一个研究模型，分析技术压力创造者的中介作用，了解技术压力抑制剂如何影响学生的满意度和绩效。本文以206名印度大学生为样本，对模型进行了验证。技术压力创造者在技术压力抑制剂与学生满意度和绩效之间起中介作用，技术压力抑制剂对学生满意度和绩效有间接正向影响。本研究的见解将使高等教育机构能够识别发现技术型教育存在问题的学生，并通过遵循支持性策略来减轻压力，提高学生对技术型教育的积极参与，从而帮助他们保持健康。

期刊介绍： The primary mission of the International Journal of Mobile and Blended Learning (IJMBL) is to provide insight and understanding into the role of innovative learning theory and practice in an increasingly mobile and pervasive technological environment. As technology enables a more seamless experience of device-supported learning worlds that may integrate mobile, embedded, augmented, and immersive technologies, researchers, professionals, and academicians may expect to see increasing interest and activity in blended approaches to learning. IJMBL brings together experts at the forefront of this field, in both technology and pedagogical practice, and assists them in the development and dissemination of new approaches to both mobile and blended learning.
