Ed Hallowell's advice on better daily schedules
A research study finds that you can reduce the effects of ADT Information overload: why some people seem to suffer more than others in ACM International Conference Proceeding Series; Vol. 189 (Proceedings of the 4th Nordic conference on Human-computer interaction: changing roles.) Ruud Janssen, Henk de Poot. 2006. p397 - 400.
We studied information overload among senior managers in an industrial company. We used the critical incident collection technique to gather specific examples of information overload and coping strategies. We then used textual interpretation and the affinity diagram technique to interpret the interviews and to categorize our respondents, the critical incidents they described, and the coping strategies they mentioned. Our results show that the extent to which people suffer from information overload is closely related to the strategies they use to deal with it.
