摘要

目的本研究旨在探讨数位科技在改善建筑工地工人心理健康方面的作用。设计/方法/方法本研究采用了混合研究方法,包括问卷调查和两个阶段的半结构化访谈。采用目的性抽样确定问卷调查的受访者和被调查者。采用加权平均评分法(WMR)和人工内容分析法对收集到的数据进行排序和评价。研究结果显示,双相情感障碍、焦虑症、注意力缺陷/多动障碍、强迫症、工作压力和抑郁症是建筑工人中最严重的6种精神障碍(md)和30种原因。与6种最显著MDs相关的症状有27种,其中出汗是最显著的症状。尽管如此,16种DTs被发现适合减轻最显著MDs的原因。原创性/价值关于DTs在建筑作业中的应用,已有大量的研究。然而,目前还没有足够的研究集中在如何应用DTs来改善建筑工地工人的心理健康。因此,这项研究可以通过为建筑行业带来一个新的范例,影响DTs的使用,以解决mdd的共同原因。

Usage of digital technology in improving the mental health of workers on construction sites
Purpose The purpose of this study is to investigate the usage of digital technologies (DTs) in improving the mental health of workers on construction sites. Design/methodology/approach A mixed research approach was used in the study, which comprised a questionnaire survey and two phases of semi-structured interviews. Purposive sampling was used to determine the interviewees and respondents of the questionnaire survey. Weighted mean rating (WMR) and manual content analysis were used to rank and evaluate the collected data. Findings The findings of this study revealed bipolar disorder, anxiety disorders, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, work-related stress and depression as the six most significant mental disorders (MDs) among the construction workforce and 30 causes for them. Moreover, 27 symptoms were related to the six most significant MDs, and sweating was the most significant symptom among them. Despite that, 16 DTs were found to be suitable in mitigating the causes for the most significant MDs. Originality/value There are numerous studies conducted on the application of DTs to construction operations. However, insufficient studies have been conducted focusing on the application of DTs in improving the mental health of workers at construction sites. This study can thus influence the use of DTs for tackling the common causes for MDs by bringing a new paradigm to the construction industry.
