Abstract

Excessive work stress on office workers will affect people's health and work efficiency, and organizational stress management is becoming more and more critical. Current studies focus on the management of individual stress. The collective nature of stress and coping needs further exploration.This paper proposes the PopStress system, which converts the negative stress of an office group into the energy of a popcorn machine. When the organizational stress accumulates to the threshold, the popcorn machine will start making popcorn and attract office workers to take a break and eat. Through multisensory stimuli such as visual, audio, and olfaction, the system encourages natural and entertaining social stress-relieving behaviors within the office.Twenty-four office workers were recruited and divided into six groups for the user study. The results showed that PopStress enables users to understand the collective stress status, and successfully relieved the individual's physiological and psychological stress. This work provides insights into organizational stress management, health product design, and social design.

PopStress:为办公室工作人员设计组织压力干预措施
上班族过度的工作压力会影响人们的健康和工作效率,组织压力管理变得越来越关键。目前的研究集中在个人压力的管理上。压力和应对的集体性质需要进一步探索。本文提出了PopStress系统,将办公室群体的负压力转化为爆米花机的能量。当组织压力累积到阈值时,爆米花机就会开始制作爆米花,吸引上班族休息一下,吃点东西。通过视觉、听觉和嗅觉等多感官刺激,该系统鼓励在办公室内进行自然和娱乐的社交减压行为。研究人员招募了24名办公室工作人员,并将其分为六组进行用户研究。结果表明,PopStress能够让用户了解集体的压力状态,成功缓解了个体的生理和心理压力。这项工作为组织压力管理、健康产品设计和社会设计提供了见解。
