The consequence of having so many choices is that they compete for our attention: we continually switch our attention between different types of information while doing different types of tasks--in other words, we multitask. The activity of information workers in particular is characterized by the continual switching of attention throughout the day. In this book, empirical work is presented, based on ethnographic and sensor data collection, which reveals how multitasking affects information workers‘ activities, mood, and stress in real work environments. Multitasking is discussed from various perspectives: activity switching, interruptions as triggers for activity switching, email as a major source of interruptions, and the converse of distractions: focused attention. All of these factors are components of information work. This book begins by defining multitasking and describing different research approaches used in studying multitasking. It then describes how multiple factors occur to encourage multitasking in the digitally-enabled workplace | 出版日期 | Book 2015 | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-02212-8 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-031-01084-2 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-031-02212-8Series ISSN 1946-7680 Series E-ISSN 1946-7699 | issn_series | 1946-7680 | copyright | Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2015 |
