  • The rapid growth of communication-technology networks has had both positive and negative effects on performance and well-being.

    “The rapid growth of networks enabled by communication technologies (for example, Microsoft Teams, Slack and Webex) has produced positive and negative effects on performance and well-being.”

    From Understanding and shaping the future of work with self-determination theory (2022) · cites this paper as [61]

    Section 2.1 describes both benefits and drawbacks of mobile ICTs for managing work–life boundaries, and section 5.1 reports flexibility alongside social isolation among homeworkers. The paper does not establish that rapid growth of communication-technology networks caused effects on performance and well-being generally, nor does it study the named platforms.

  • Communication technologies can buffer remote workers against loneliness and enable stronger connections among distributed workers.

    “For example, these technologies can be a buffer against loneliness for remote workers or homeworkers61 and enable stronger connections among distributed workers62.”
  • Very few studies investigating homeworkers' usage of mobile phones for social interaction with colleagues have been conducted since 2009.

    “Very few studies investigating this topic have been conducted since, as asserted by Hislop et al (2015).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
