This study applies the concepts of sociotechnical theory and role theory in order to verify the effects of stress (that is, technostress) created from information and computer technology (ICT) concerning role stress and performance. We suggest diverse perspectives concerning the elements leading to technostress along with the stress-creating process of ICT among organizational members. The following four major hypotheses are proposed: (1) Technostress is positively related to role stress (e.g., conflict and overload of roles), adverse psychological outcomes, and adverse IS use related outcomes, (2) Role conflict is positively related to adverse psychological outcomes and adverse IS use related outcomes, (3) Role overload is positively related to adverse psychological outcomes and adverse IS use related outcomes, and (4) Innovation support will play as a moderator between technostress, roles tress, adverse psychological outcomes and adverse IS use related outcomes. A partial least square (PLS) with data gathered data from ICT users of organizations was used to verify the proposed hypotheses. The results supported our claims excluding the hypothesis associated to the relationship between technostress and role stress. We suggest a theoretical implication based on the verification of technostress related to the current concept of stress experienced by individuals within organizations. We also propose that a practical implication concerning the opposite effect of technostress, can be utilized as a method of reducing role stress, and suggests a diagnostic tool for assessing the degree of technostress within organizations.

In previous studies, stress in the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) work environment was focused on lowering work performance by negatively affecting the emotions of organizational members. In the current corona pandemic era, as the ratio of organizational members working from home in a smart environment increases, the need for research on the effects of positive and negative stress on work performance is being raised. Accordingly, by applying the Affective Event Theory to the emotional effects of stress on employees' emotional responses, the effects on work performance were analyzed by dividing them into positive and negative emotions. Also, the effect of smart work on work performance was analyzed. This survey was commissioned by a research company and analyzed using Smart PLS 3.0 tool. Therefore, based on the research results, it was suggested that stress does not only negatively affect the emotions of employees, but that the challenge stress that appears in the mind to achieve a goal induces positive emotions in the employees' emotions and helps to improve work performance.

본 연구는 스트레스가 지식창출에 미치는 영향을 보고자 한다. 즉, 개인의 목표에 대한 그리고 직무와 관련된 스트레스는 지식창출에 부정적 영향을 미친다는 연구들이 제시되고 있는데, 이때 팀의 어떠한 요소들이 이러한 부정적 영향을 감소시키고 지식창출에 기여할 수 있을지를 파악하고자 한다. 구체적으로 지식창출을 위해 자원에 비해 과도하게 설정된 목표로 인한 목표 스트레스(goal stress of resource inadequacy)와 지식창출을 위한 업무과정에서 발생하는 직무 스트레스(job stress)는 지식창출에 부정적 영향을 미칠 것이다. 그러나 지식창출을 위해 구성된 팀구성원들이 열심히 배우려고 하고 실패도 두려워하지 않는 분위기(팀 학습분위기) 속에서 강하게 결속되어 있다면(팀 응집력) 스트레스로 인한 지식창출에 대한 부정적 영향은 약화될 것으로 판단된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 집단수준의 변수와 개인수준의 변수를 동시에 고려해야 하는 본 연구의 성격상 최근에 많이 사용되고 있는 다수준접근방법을 적용하여, HLM 6.08을 사용한 위계적 선형 모형분석을 수행하였다. 연구결과, 직무 스트레스는 지식창출에 부정적 영향을 미쳤으나 목표 스트레스는 유의한 영향을 미치지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 또한 팀의 학습분위기는 지식창출에 긍정적 영향을 미쳤으며, 목표 스트레스와 지식창출간의 관계에 조절효과를 하는 것으로 나타났다. 팀의 응집력 역시 지식창출에 긍정적 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다.

This research aims at drawing implications by positive and negative variables affecting burnout of young working adults. The authors derived social support and empathy from sorting out the positive variables, and job boredom and job stress from the negative variables. Many studies have shown that these selected variables are believed to influence considerably on burnout. This research is achieved by the method of hierarchical multiple regression analysis. The results indicate that four positive and negative variables influence on burnout, and the negative variables(job stress, job boredom) have the greater effect than the positive variables(empathy, social support) do. Thus, there is an urgent need for care and concern for the social beginners.

우리는 스트레스의 연속인 일상에서 생활하고 있다. 때로는 부정적인 면 뿐 아니라 우리를 긴장하게 함으로써 하나의 자극제로 삶의 활력소 같은 긍정적인 면도 가지고 있다. 그러나 만성질환인 당뇨병은 당뇨병 진단 자체뿐 아니라 합병증 예방을 위해 평생 지속적으로 약물요법, 식이요법, 규칙적인 운동수행 등을 동반하기에 갑작스러운 개인적, 환경적 변화에 대한 중압감과 함께 일상에서의 스트레스가 가중된다.

The purpose of this study was to verify the moderating effects of psychological flexibility on the relationship between perceived stress and depression in university administration staff. A total of 186 participants completed the questionnaire. This data was analyzed using the SPSS program. The results of the analysis showed that perceived stress, positive perception and psychological flexibility had significant effects on depression, but negative perception didn't have significant effect on depression. The results verified the moderating effects of psychological flexibility on the relationship between perceived stress and depression. We discussed that the stress of university administration staff was more closely related to positive perception such as a decrease in positive functioning than negative perception such as loss of control. We also discussed that psychological flexibility can reduce the effect of stress on depression and prevent it. We suggested acceptance commitment therapy to improve psychological flexibility as an intervention method for stress and depression issues in university administration staff.
