Paper Abstract:
|
The aim of the present study was to examine the psychosocial effects of using wireless information resources on the
work-life balance. A set of personality traits was used as an independent variable, as previous research has indicated these
to be determinants for work-life balance. All participants were users of wireless information resources for work purposes.
Two questionnaires were administered on 29 participants to measure personality traits and affects of mobile technology
on work-life balance. Results showed a significant relationship between the personality traits of high extraversion and
neuroticism and the effects of a wireless information resource on the user. |
