Abstract
ABSTRACT This study, aimed to determine how teachers’ technostress levels changed during the COVID-19 outbreak. Within the scope of the study, data were collected from a total of 599 teachers, including 295 teachers before the COVID-19 outbreak and 304 teachers after the beginning of the outbreak. The Teachers’ Technostress Levels Defining Scale developed by Çoklar, Efilti and Şahin (2017) was used in data collection. The independent samples t-test, one-way analysis of variance (one-way ANOVA), and multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) methods were used to investigate the technostress levels of the participants according to various variables. According to the results obtained, it is observed that the COVID-19 pandemic process increased the technostress levels of the participants. Although the technostress levels of the participants increased further after the outbreak, they did not change by gender, and it was observed that male and female teachers had a close level of technostress before and after the outbreak. It was also revealed that the technostress levels of the participants differed significantly according to branches during the outbreak. Recommendations were made in line with the data obtained.
本研究旨在确定新冠肺炎疫情期间教师技术压力水平的变化情况。在研究范围内,共收集了599名教师的数据,其中包括疫情爆发前的295名教师和疫情开始后的304名教师。使用Çoklar、Efilti和Şahin(2017)开发的教师技术压力水平定义量表进行数据收集。采用独立样本t检验、单因素方差分析(one-way analysis of variance, one- ANOVA)和多因素方差分析(multivariate analysis of variance, MANOVA)方法,根据不同的变量对被试的技术压力水平进行调查。根据获得的结果,可以观察到COVID-19大流行过程增加了参与者的技术压力水平。虽然参与者的技术压力水平在疫情爆发后进一步增加,但它们没有因性别而变化,并且观察到男女教师在疫情爆发前后的技术压力水平接近。研究还显示,在疫情爆发期间,不同分支机构的参与者的技术压力水平存在显著差异。根据所获得的数据提出了建议。
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
