Publication Access status: Open Access , Context factors for pro-social practices in health careIn order to reduce the shortage of healthcare workers, researchers try to find ways to improve nurses’ job conditions. A lot of effort concentrates on organizing shift work in a more agreeable way by providing more autonomy to the nurses, e.g., through self scheduling. However, increased autonomy also means that nurses have to resolve scheduling conflicts within the team. To that end, a good team coherence is essential. In this brief exploratory study we present the pro-social practices of three Japanese nurses, each one working in a different setting that brings specific opportunities for pro-sociality. The findings can serve as a starting point for more focused, context-specific studies on pro-sociality in outpatient, residential, or day care.Source Type:InProceedings1 24 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Publication Access status: Open Access , Nachhaltige Motivation durch wohlbefindensorientierte GestaltungIn dem Projekt „Game of Roster“ (GamOR, siehe Kapitel 1) haben wir uns zum Ziel gesetzt, ein kollaboratives Schichtplanungssystem für Pflegekräfte zu entwickeln, das Mitarbeitende nachhaltig zur Beteiligung am Schichtplanungsprozess motivieren möchte. Das System sollte allen Mitarbeitenden ermöglichen, ihre Wünsche einzubringen, Planungskonflikte eigenständig aufzulösen und letztendlich ihre Schichtarbeit besser mit ihrem Lebensalltag zu vereinbaren. Die so entstehende Planungssicherheit und -autonomie soll nicht nur die Arbeitszufriedenheit, sondern auch das allgemeine Wohlbefinden der Pflegekräfte in ihrem angespannten Arbeitsfeld erhöhen. Die „nachhaltige Motivation” als zentrale Anforderung brachte daher das Gestaltungsziel eines als sinnvoll und freudvoll empfundenen Planungsprozesses mit sich.Source Type:Book Part3 8 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Publication Access status: Open Access , Positive work practices. Opportunities and challenges in designing meaningful work-related technologyWork is a rich source of meaning. However, beyond organizational changes, most approaches in the research field of Meaningful Work neglected the power of work-related technology to increase meaning. Using two cases as examples, this paper proposes a wellbeing-driven approach to the design of work-related technology. Despite the positive results of our cases, we argue that the use of technology as a means of increasing meaning in the workplace is still in its infancy.Source Type:Other2 15 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Publication Access status: Open Access , Understanding and designing automation with peoples' wellbeing in mindNowadays, automation not only dominates industry but becomes more and more a part of our private, everyday lives. Following the notion of increased convenience and more time for the "important things in life”, automation relieves us from many daily household chores – robots vacuum floors and automated coffeemakers produce supposedly barista-quality coffee on the press of a button. In many cases these offers are embraced by people without further questioning. Of course, automation frees us from many unloved activities, but we may also lose something by delegating more and more everyday activities to automation. In a series of four studies, we explored the experiential costs of everyday automation and strategies of how to design technology to reconcile experience with the advantages of ever more powerful automation.Source Type:Other5 7
