How researchers see this paper

The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Technology Acceptance Model 3 and a Research Agenda on Interventions (2008, unknown): “…prior research has suggested the information-related design characteristics help users improve productivity and performance (e.g., Dennis & Valacich, 1993, 1999; Valacich, Dennis, & Connolly, 1994; Dennis, Valacich, Carte, Garﬁeld, Ha-ley, & Aronson, 1997; Speier, Valacich, & Vessey, 1999).”
Pardon the Interruption: An Integrative Review and Future Research Agenda for Research on Work Interruptions (2019, background): “…stress that work interruptions are caused by only external stimuli such as e-mails, phone calls, and so forth (e.g., O’Conaill & Frohlich, 1995; Speier et al., 1999), others suggest that internal factors such as one’s own thoughts, pain, fatigue, and so forth can also lead to work…”
Towards Reconciling Transaction Cost Economics and the Knowledge-based View of the Firm: The Context of Interfirm Collaborations (2002, background): “Regarding complexity, Speier et al. (1999) show, through a series of experiments, that for highly complex tasks, disruptions negatively impact task performance.”
The stress potential of social media in the workplace (2013, background): “Invasion can lead to increased distress, a less satisfying family life, poor decision-making, particularly in the course of performing complex tasks and, burnout syndrome (Weil & Rosen 1997; Speier et al. 1999; Garcı́a-Montes et al. 2006).”
