Relationship of computer hassles, somatic complaints, and daily hassles
1University of North Alabama.
Abstract:
The relationships between computer hassles, measured by the Computer Technology Hassles Scale, daily hassles, measured by the Daily Hassles Scale, and somatic complaints, measured by the Hopkins Symptom Checklist, were investigated in a college sample of 103. Computer hassles were correlated .57 with daily hassles and .39 with somatic complaints. Daily hassles were correlated .62 with somatic complaints. In general, these measures were uncorrelated with computer experience or computer knowledge. The daily Hassles Scale, a measure of stress, is a better correlate for the Computer Technology Hassles Scale, a measure of computer-related stress, than the Perceived Stress Scale.
