"Using new data from the 2021 Business Response Survey, a large, nationally representative survey of U.S. private sector businesses, this article presents unique estimates of telework patterns observed during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. We find that, between July and September 2021, 13 percent of all U.S. private sector jobs involved teleworking full time and 9 percent involved teleworking some of the time. Telework was less common in establishments that increased base wages during the pandemic. The share of establishments that increased telework was larger among establishments that started offering flexible work hours or compressed work schedules after the pandemic hit. Telework was also associated with reductions in workplace square footage and relocation. Within each industry sector, low-paying establishments had a smaller share of jobs that involved telework" (Bureau of Labor Statistics [BLS], 2022, para. 1).

After reading this article on climate change and mental health, I felt it fit right in with workplace modality and workplace behavior.

It's somewhat scary that our digital intelligence could/may/will surpass biological intelligence. Thank you, Dr. Hinton for the fascinating and thought-provoking information. And thank you for your humor as well.
Wonderful video! Before seeing this video, I didn't know that this was a topic being discussed. But, after watching this video, there are a lot of factors to consider. For example, science as managerialism. I didn't think of science as management. But giving this notion some thought, management is not an exact science nor are scientific principles. Another key aspect from this video is the abundance of scientists. With the premise that science is broken, how does this premise influence the implications of scientific principles and research publications?
Wonderful webinar! As a football and basketball fan, a lot of the content in this video was applicable to my favorite sports. The notion of stress and arousal manifests for players, coaches and I must say, fans as well. I know for myself as a sport spectator, I feel the highs and lows of rival in both wins and losses of the game. Love the Midwest!
What a great poster! The concept of online empathy applies to many aspects of both our professional and personal lives. With regards to this study and its findings, I'd be curious to know if the empathy focus in communication was reciprocated from Syrian refugees towards the Turkish Local Society.
Excellent study! I was working in healthcare during the COVID-19 pandemic. There were so many uncertainties for healthcare workers; mandates and rules changing on a daily basis, sometimes hourly. I recall how burnout was affecting them. It wasn't their job that was causing burnout, it was the unpredictability and uncertainty of the pandemic. Unfortunately, this led to some nurses leaving the profession. To this day, there is still a shortage of healthcare workers which is adding to and/or increasing rates of burnout in the healthcare industry. Based on some of my nurse friends' experiences, emotional exhaustion and burnout are at the top of their list.
As an Organizational Psychologist, I was immediately drawn to this poster. In the poster summary, there was mention of the functional and mental state of a person and perception of the digital world. With today's advancements in technology such as machine learner/artificial intelligence, I'm curious as to how these advancements will alter the human experience (i.e., functional state and mental state) as well as their perceptions?
