Italian Technostress Creators Scale: Validation of an Assessment Tool.
Article in Journal of occupational and environmental medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveThe aim of this study was to develop and validate a tool to assess technostress in Italian workers.
methodsA questionnaire was developed by back-translating the Technostress Creators Scale, adding sociodemographic questions, investigating work characteristics, frequency of technology use, etc. Exploratory factor analysis examined the underlying factor structure. Model fit was evaluated through confirmatory factor analysis.
resultsThe sample consisted of 90 participants, 53.3% female, mean age 37.4 (standard deviation ±10.9) years. Exploratory factor analysis revealed a six-factor structure explaining 58% of the variance, with factor loadings >0.40. CFE showed good fit indices ( χ2 / degrees of freedom = 4.02, comparative fit index = 0.926, Tucker-Lewis index = 0.915, root mean square error of approximation = 0.057, standardized root mean square residual = 0.079).
conclusionsThe Italian version of the Technostress Creators Scale showed good reliability. This validation is a starting point to develop new strategies to assess, evaluate, and prevent technostress in the workplace.
