论文摘要

知识工作的不断变化的性质为新兴技术作为工作场所创新的推动者创造了需求。一种新兴的技术对远程工作安排的潜在补救弊端是将物理现实与数字虚拟相结合的元元素。在文献中,知识工作部门中的这种创新主要在协作背景下作为因变量进行了研究。但是,在本文中,我们从分心冲突的角度研究了元元中的知识工作,因为独立的,不间断的活动与协作一样的特征是知识工作的特征。初步发现表明,元文化中的知识工作者从1)其他化身的存在,外观和行为,2)现实主义,新颖性和虚拟环境的负担以及3)技术摩擦和导航。这项工作具有理论上的含义,即必须扩展分心冲突理论,以将唤醒的其他来源纳入元元中的知识工作环境时。

The changing nature of knowledge work creates demands for emerging technologies as enablers for workplace innovation. One emerging technology to potentially remedy drawbacks of remote work arrangements are meta-verses that merge physical reality with digital virtuality. In the literature, such innovations in the knowledge work sector have been primarily examined against the backdrop of collaboration as a dependent variable. In this paper, however, we investigate knowledge work in metaverses from a distraction-conflict perspective because independent, uninterrupted activities are as much characteristic of knowledge work as collaboration. Preliminary findings show that knowledge workers in meta-verses experience arousal from the 1) presence, appearance, and behaviour of other avatars, 2) realism, novelty, and affordances of the virtual environment, and 3) technological friction and navigation. This work has the theoretical implication that distraction-conflict theory must be extended to incorporate additional sources of arousal when applied to the context of knowledge work in metaverses.
