“…Thus, technostress is a phenomenon of great interest, especially for firms, as the productivity of stressed workers is low, directly affecting the organization’s performance (Ayyagari, 2012). Moreover, technostress increases with age, so it is one of the variables that firms should consider (Berger et al , 2016).…”

Purpose This paper aims to assess how digital knowledge management affects technostress in workers and how that influences the organization’s sustainability. The study applied an in-depth literature review of the following concepts and dimensions, digital knowledge management (acquisition, sharing and application), technostress (techno overload, invasion, complexity, insecurity and uncertainty) and sustainability (economic, social and environmental). Design/methodology/approach After completing the literature review, an online questionnaire was developed and disseminated through social networks. The questionnaire had four sections: classification of the respondent, questions related to knowledge management, technostress and sustainability. The final sample comprises 454 responses. First, a descriptive analysis of the sample was carried out, and second, a structural equation model by the partial least squares–structural equation modeling method was conducted. Findings The results show that there is a direct and positive relationship between knowledge management and technostress. This finding means that a higher level of knowledge management of firms causes a greater level of technostress among employees. The close relationship between knowledge management and the firms’ sustainability has also been confirmed. The study results have shown that gender does not have a moderating effect on the relationships reported, as there are no significant differences. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this study is the first to look at digital knowledge management, assessing both the levels of employee technostress and the sustainability achieved by their organizations. Thus, this study could serve as a basis for future research. In addition, it contributes to the scarce academic literature on technostress and digital knowledge management levels.

“…Technostress is described by Berger, Romeo, Gidion and Poyato (2016) as an individual's feeling of stress induced by the use of ICT. Ragu-Nathan et al ( 2008) regard technostress as a phenomenon that users experience in organizations over the use of ICT and the ability to cope with its ever-evolving nature.…”

The aim of this study is to review the influence of technology leadership on school administrators' technostress and technology acceptance. Technology is seen as an indispensable part of educational organizations that are constantly changing and transforming to meet the needs of 21st century society and technology leadership, which has emerged as a result of rapidly developing technology. Although prior studies have examined these dimensions separately, there has been no study that investigates them all. This research is designed as a correlational survey model as it aims to reveal the relationships between technology leadership, technostress and technology acceptance. The participants of the study were school administrators of K-12 schools in Izmir, Turkey. A total of 499 school administrators, 112 of whom were participated in the pilot study and 387 in the main study. In order to conduct this research, ethical permission was obtained from the Social and Human Sciences Research Ethics Committee of Istanbul University -Cerrahpasa with the date 15.04.2021 and number E-74555795-050.01.04-77271. The Technology Leadership Competency Scale for School Administrators, The Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) 2 Scale and The Teachers' Technostress Levels Defining Scale (TTLDS) were used in this study. The data was collected through an online survey. Permission was obtained from the İzmir Provincial Directorate of National Education-Turkey. The SPSS 18.0 statistics program was used to analyze the data. According to the study's findings, administrators' technology leadership predicts their technostress and technology acceptance. In addition, administrators' technology acceptance predicts their technostress. Technology leadership and technology acceptance have statistically significant negative effects on technostress. Technology leadership has a statistically significant positive effect on technology acceptance.

“…The concept of technostress was initially introduced to the literature by (Brod, 1984) and this concept was defined as a modern adaptation disorder resulting from the inability to use current computer technologies effectively. Similarly, by updating this definition, Berger et al, (2016) defined technostress as the feeling of individual stress caused by the use of technology. The widespread use of technology in universities has led to the emergence of this harmful diseases to its users.…”

Technostress is a critical disease in the current competitive environment experienced by all of us with the rapid enhancement in technology. COVID-19 pandemic has changed people’s lives to blend more with technology. Earlier, organizations and employees used more technology compared to school & university students. But now students have to use technology to do their studies, maintain their association with friends and to spend their leisure time as well. Moreover, every private and public educational institute is converting into online learning and teaching. Specially, all government universities are conducting lectures and assessments using technology. Even though this technology enables us to continue all our daily routines, it has a dark side that we need to examine. The purpose of this paper is to discuss about the technostress and its impact on academic performance among university students in Sri Lanka. Technostress is defined as a common problem of adaptation that may occur if the user is unable to adapt to, or work effectively with information and communication technology. This is vastly visible in government universities because there are many students who have stepped into the university representing both rural and urban areas in Sri Lanka. Technostress consists of several dimensions, including Techno-overload, Techno-invasion, Techno-complexity, Techno-insecurity, and Techno-uncertainty. There is a lack of empirical studies from the Sri Lankan context in relation to technostress and academic performance hence it is vital to examine the prevalence of technostress among undergraduates and postgraduates in Sri Lankan universities. This study therefore aims to provide researchers and practitioners a meaningful understanding of the university students' technostress and its influence on academic performance in the new normal.
