Q2. What are the future works mentioned in the paper "Design blueprint for stress-sensitive adaptive enterprise systems" ?
The present work has certain limitations, offering potential for future research. Future work on this topic should follow a theory-guided design approach, strongly involving theoretical and empirical work, particularly including laboratory research and field studies. Fourth, by offering a design blueprint, the paper deals with the problem primarily from a technical perspective ; hence, future research must delve into organizational, societal, ethical, and legal issues that result from their approach. Finally, future research could consider that increasingly more employees use private life systems ( e. g., smartphones ) for professional activities.
Q3. What is the purpose of the blueprint?
The blueprint addresses the following objective:Design Objective: Support humans via information systems (1) in managing stress in an enterprise context, and (2) in reducing stress in order to increase well-being and health, performance and productivity, and user satisfaction.
Q4. What is the role of cortisol in stress?
a stress hormone releasedby the adrenal glands in response to stimulation by the hypothalamus, plays a critical role in internal stress processes.
Q5. What are the three main factors that are important for facilitating stress interventions?
In order to facilitate stress interventions, the authors introduce a high-level distinction among stressors related to (1) job characteristics, (2) technological environment, (3) organizational environment, and (4) social environment.
Q6. What is the main reason for the pervasiveness of ICT in the workplace?
The pervasiveness of ICT in firms, along with daily incidents of computer hassles (e.g., system breakdown, waiting times, or printer problems) can negatively affect employees’ psychological and physiological conditions (e.g., Ayyagari et al.
Q7. Why have enterprises started to counteract TS?
Motivated by an increasing number of staff complaints and by empirical research (e.g., Barley et al. 2011), enterprises have already started to counteract TS and its negative consequences by implementing interventions.
Q8. What are the main reasons for the stress of packaged application systems?
More generally, packaged application systems (as a major part of the technological environment, see Fig. 1) may constitute a source of stress for six main reasons [see the sources cited in Fischer and Riedl (2015, p. 1462), Ragu-Nathan et al. (2008) and Tarafdar et al. (2007, 2011)], namely techno-overload, techno-invasion, techno-complexity, techno-insecurity, techno-uncertainty, and techno-unreliability.
Q9. What is the relationship between physiological arousal and performance?
according to the Yerkes and Dodson (1908) law, the relationship between physiological arousal and performance resembles an inverted U-shaped curve, whereat arousal levels that are too low or too high impair performance.
Q10. What is the way to measure stress levels?
for optimal efficacy of an SSAES, stress levels need to be measured continuously or at least at short time intervals, to allow for prompt interventions and stress analytics.
