PsychologInnen der Universität Graz erheben Auswirkungen von Telearbeit in der Corona-Krise

Aufgrund der COVID-19-Pandemie nutzen derzeit mehr Menschen als je zuvor Telearbeit. In einer wöchentlichen Studie untersuchen ForscherInnen vom Institut für Psychologie der Universität Graz gemeinsam mit KollegInnen der Universität Paris Descartes und der Internationalen Universität Valencia, wie Menschen in verschiedenen europäischen Ländern die Arbeit im Homeoffice erleben.

Hier können sich Interessierte für die Studie anmelden: https://www.soscisurvey.de/telework-study/

Mit dieser Studie wollen die ForscherInnen Antworten auf die Fragen liefern, wie Menschen Telearbeit erleben und welche Auswirkungen diese auf verschiedene arbeitsbezogene Aspekte und das Wohlbefinden hat. Die Studie besteht aus kurzen Fragebögen, die in den kommenden Wochen jeweils am Ende der Arbeitswoche ausgefüllt werden sollen. Für Interessierte, die an der Studie teilnehmen möchten, ist es wichtig, dass sie sich mit ihrer E-Mail-Adresse einloggen, damit die WissenschafterInnen die Fragebögen in den folgenden Wochen per Mail zuschicken können.

Die Beantwortung der Fragen wird in der ersten Woche etwa 10 bis 15 Minuten und in den folgenden Wochen etwa 6 bis 10 Minuten in Anspruch nehmen.

Telework in times of COVID-19

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, more people than ever before are teleworking. In a weekly study, researchers from University of Graz, University Paris Descartes and International University of Valencia examine together how people in various European countries experience teleworking.

Fair distribution: Researchers determine just greenhouse gas budgets for all EU regions

Ten years ago, on 12 December 2015, the Paris Climate Agreement was signed at the UN Climate Conference. In order to limit global warming to well below two degrees, only a certain amount of CO2 may be emitted worldwide. While the focus was originally on national emission targets, more than 200 subnational regions and almost 300 cities have now adopted their own targets. But how many emissions are they fairly entitled to? Researchers at the University of Graz have now developed transparent criteria for fair distribution at the subnational level for the first time and determined corresponding greenhouse gas budgets for all European regions. The paper was published today in the scientific journal Nature Communications.
