Questionnaire Design Outline
1 Gender/Generation/Devices/Programs/Connection
2 Technostress [65]
The measurement instrument has been specifically developed using the RED General Questionnaire (or Questionnaire of Resources, Emotions/Experiences and Demands in its general version) that arises as a modification and extension of RED.es, and is applicable to any type of samples, not only occupational but also pre-occupational (for example, university students). It has 16 questions, four of them referring to each dimension of technostress: skepticism (TSK), fatigue (TF), anxiety (TA), and inefficacy (TI).
3 Effects [26]
Eight types of problems have been used (emotional, family, personal, social, performance, privacy, damage and food) grouped into three dimensions, justified in the theoretical review: individual effects (emotional, personal, harm and food), group effects (family, social and privacy) and professional effects (performance).
4 User Archetypes [63]
