Online meetings are exhausting—this phenomenon, dubbed "zoom fatigue," was widely reported in the media during the COVID-19 pandemic. "And this was certainly what happened during lockdown," points out Junior Professor Hadar Nesher Shoshan of Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU). "But we have found out by means of a recent study that this is no longer the case under the conditions that prevail today. In fact, it seems that video meetings are not more exhausting than face-to-face meetings." The results of the study are published in the Journal of Occupational Health Psychology.
