Technology-induced Stressors, Job Satisfaction and Workplace Exhaustion Among Journalism and Mass Communication Faculty
Randal A. Beam, Eunseong Kim and Paul Voakes
For professors across a variety of disciplines, keeping up with technology has increasingly become a source of stress. This paper,
based on results of a national study on the use of technology in U.S. journalism and mass-communication programs, finds that technology-induced
stress can contribute to lower job satisfaction and a greater sense of job exhaustion for teachers in these fields, too. Suggestions are offered
on how college administrators might improve the work environment for faculty to lower the level of technology-induced stress.
