Why technostress?

I chose technostress because its a problem that affects our society specially the young people, and I think that is very important that all of they are informed. I think too that is very important know how to use by a good way the new technologies because they are part of our life.

Technostress

The word technostress comes from the words:

Techno: Technology.

Stress: Fatigue.

So the technostress can be defined as:

"The technostress is the inability to use the technologies by a healthy way."

The technostress have two principal types of manifestations: technophilia and technophobia.

Technophilia

Is the adiction to the internet and the new technologies.

Symptoms:

-Decreased communication with family and friends.

-Problems in the work or school.

-Decrease time to sleep.

Technophobia



Is the rejection at the new technologies.

How to treat it:

-Show the subject that he can't harm the device.

-Make activities that incite the subject to know the devices.
