We are less efficient because of smartphones, says Kaspersky – Bitmag

Although smartphones allowing us to have permanent contact with our colleagues, the always updated mailbox and ease in solving urgent problems, end up, in fact, for making us less productive when we are working our secretary. At least this is the conclusion of a psychological research conducted by universities Würzburg and Nottingham-Trent , requested by Kaspersky Lab .

the company specializes in security says that these experiences have found a correlation between productivity levels and the distance between the participants and their smartphones. When you were away from their devices, their performance improved 26% . The experiments tested the behavior of 95 people between 19 and 56 years old in laboratories located at the Universities of Würzburg and Nottingham-Trent. The experimental conditions and gender of study participants were properly balanced.

The study involved participants to submit to a concentration test under four different conditions: with the smartphone in your pocket, desk, locked in a drawer and out of the room . The results were significant: the concentration was lower when smartphones were the secretaries, but the performance in the test was improving as the distance against the device increased. In general, the test results concluded that there was an improvement of 26% in the performance of subjects when smartphones were removed from the chamber.

However, and contrary to what was expected, the absence of smartphones do not let the nervous participants . Anxiety levels were consistent in all experiments, although women have proved more anxious. The researchers conclude why anxiety levels at work are not influenced smartphones (or their absence), but may be altered depending on the gender.

“previous studies have shown that, on one hand, the separation of a person relative to their smartphone has negative effects on the emotional level – such as increased anxiety – although on the other hand, other studies also conclude that the presence of these devices distracts them. In other words, both the presence and the absence of the smartphone can endanger human concentration, “he said in the statement that presents the study Jens Binder University Nottingham-Trent . “With this study we found that the absence of the smartphone improves concentration,” adds Astrid Carolus University Würzburg .

the press release also explores the results of this experiment meet the conclusions of Kaspersky in the recent investigation into the “ Amnesia Digital at Work “. Also in this study the researchers Kaspersky Lab find that digital devices can have a negative impact on levels of concentration. Among other things, it was concluded, for example, to take notes on digital devices during meetings decreases the level of understanding of what is really happening at the meeting. Prohibit digital devices in the workplace is not an option, but the results of this experiment – associated with “ Digital Amnesia at Work ” – allow to have companies a clearer vision of what can be done with a view to increasing the productivity of employees.

“instead of having permanent access to their smartphones, the productivity of the employees of a company can be crafted to create a period of time where they are not used – ‘free phone’. That is, by implementing rules for meetings without smartphones and without computers “says Alfonso Ramirez , Executive Kaspersky Lab .

“companies should also be aware that, in the current hiperconetado business environment, low levels of concentration can become a security problem. The advanced attacks that target a specific, for example, are found only to employees are aware with regard to emails with unusual and unexpected content. It is therefore essential that organizations carry out safety promotion initiatives – like formations to raise awareness among employees about these issues -., Want to use smartphones at work or not “
