English abstract

The objective of this research was to explore an association between technostress and job satisfaction of university librarians in Khyber Pakhtoonkhwa (KPK), Pakistan. For that reason a self - administered questionnaire was used to gather the data from 148 librarians serving in 25 public and private sectors universities of KPK. The entire population (N=148) was selected as respondents because the population was accessible. For this study, 148 questionnaires were distributed and only 120 questionnaires were returned. However, after initial data screening, 116 questionnaires were ascertained as useable for further statistical analyses. Pearson correlation was calculated to investigate the correlation of technostress and job satisfaction. Multiple regression an alysis was performed to test the three hypotheses between technostress dimensions and job satisfaction. Findings of this study show a negative but statistically significant relationship of three dimensions of technostress with job satisfaction. Based on mu ltiple regression analysis - all the three hypotheses, (H1, H2, and H3) are supported. This study will be significant in controlling stress caused by technology and enhancing the level of job satisfaction among Pakistani university librarians. The study will equally contribute to the literature on relationship between technostress and job satisfaction. No identical previous studies were located on this topic in the context of Pakistani university librarianship.
