  1. This study provides evidence of the influence of perceived threat of COVID-19 on psychological well-being, mediated by negative emotions. In addition, our results confirmed moderating effects of the use of work and non-work technology. Individuals who used technology to a larger extent, experienced more negative emotions when they perceived a higher threat of COVID-19. This study contributes to a better understanding of the factors underlying the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our mental health and stresses the importance of adopting a mindful technology use

  2. The COVID-19 pandemic has not only placed new demands on society in general but has also exacerbated the demands placed on employees in organizations. Adapting to the use of new technologies can be seen as a job demand under the JD-R framework of workplace motivation and stress. This longitudinal survey study examined the effects of multiple resources and demands on strain in employed individuals. Results indicate that the use of technology as well as the perceived threat of COVID-19 were significant predictors of reduced well-being. Implications for research and practice are discussed.

  3. null (Ed.)
    With the advent of the COVID-19 pandemic, information system researchers have begun to explore ways in which information technology artifacts have meaning within the context of this seismic event. Within this manuscript, we develop a new concept, namely: mindful adaptation of technology (MAT), and subsequently derive a research model based on event systems theory, coping theory, and mindfulness research. We theoretically position this multi-faceted construct of MAT within existing models and demonstrate its novelty and utility for understanding technological adaptation in response to extreme research contexts. We conclude with theoretical implications and direction for future research.
