Negative Emotions Induced by Work-Related Information Technology Use in Hospital Nursing
There is a lack of research into the implications of information technology-related issues for nurses' experiences and well-being at work. However, negative work experiences can generate negative emotions, which, in turn, can negatively affect well-being. Despite this, research has not systemat...

description | There is a lack of research into the implications of information technology-related issues for nurses' experiences and well-being at work. However, negative work experiences can generate negative emotions, which, in turn, can negatively affect well-being. Despite this, research has not systematically addressed negative emotions generated by work-related information technology use in hospital nursing. Drawing on data collected through focus groups and interviews with a total of 15 ward nurses, this paper identifies the discrete negative emotions that emerge from work-related information technology use in hospital nursing and maps the identified emotions onto the perceptions associated with and triggering them. The analysis was qualitative and included process, emotion, and causation coding alongside extensive memo writing. We identified six primary negative emotions: frustration, moral distress, alienation, psychological distress, anxiety, and perplexity. All of the identified emotions can be associated with four types of experiences of feeling hindered: mental effort, inability to carry out a task, doing extra or unnecessary work, and failing to complete a task successfully. The framework we present may support healthcare organizations in identifying potentially harmful information technology-related configurations in their infrastructure and implementing appropriate measures to foster nurses' well-being at work. |
