Communication professor Jeremy Bailenson has identified four causes for ‘Zoom fatigue’ and provides four simple solutions in the first peer-reviewed article that systematically deconstructs Zoom fatigue from a psychological perspective. https://t.co/D39dtZsh3L

Stanford paper says to reduce zoom fatigue:
— Nick Ducoff (@nickducoff) February 26, 2021
1. Reduce size of zoom window
2. Hide self view
3. Go audio only as needed
4. Minimize the window as needed so you don’t see others https://t.co/OYOmLccB9h
I’m not the only one! https://t.co/8Z9tU5S2Kn

Did Stanford just invent the phone call? https://t.co/n3CP1SuaWO

1. Excessive amounts of close-up eye contact is highly intense

2. Seeing yourself during video chats constantly in real-time is fatiguing
3. Video chats dramatically reduce our usual mobility
4. Cognitive load is much higher in video chats #ZoomFatigue https://t.co/vkjOcvqOse
i had a week of phone calls and it was very nearly restorative https://t.co/TjUork5sFV

The “ZEF Scale” = Zoom Exhaustion and Fatigue Scale.
— Gavin Baker (@GavinSBaker) February 26, 2021
Excessive closeup eye contact and constantly seeing ourselves create a higher cognitive load during a video chat vs. an in person meeting.
Recommended solutions are interesting.https://t.co/JkIW7OeWnP
So basically you must turn it into a phone call. https://t.co/frB1O8TZHo

Research on avoiding Zoom fatigue--talks about extra cognitive and emotional demands. Great tips. I like this one: "give yourself an “audio only...not simply you turning off your camera... but also turning your body away from the screen” https://t.co/ELhzE4hRIc

Confirming what we all feel after a day of Zoom calls (FWIW, I removed my 'self-view' from calls and it slightly helps) https://t.co/RuAxSG6s1q

"in regular face-to-face interaction, nonverbal communication is quite natural and each of us naturally makes and interprets gestures and nonverbal cues subconsciously. But in video chats, we have to work harder to send and receive signals." https://t.co/h9CbhdgH18

I need everyone to read this before inviting me to a zoom call that should have been a phone call (or an email). THIS is partly why we're so bloody exhausated: https://t.co/jw7iFVrEA2

Researchers at Stanford University have confirmed that 'Zoom fatigue' causes greater stress than meeting in real life because of the 'non-verbal overload' of endless video calls https://t.co/OGAdXfHBNp

No wonder I'm dead tired at the end of the day. https://t.co/rY3aeEzTaq via @financialtimes

As someone who spends a solid 4-8 hours a day on Zoom 7 days a week.

This study is flatly wrong.
Zoom fatique is from:
1) Bad Audio
2) Bad Video
3) Poor etiquette
Forcing the participant to process massive amounts of sensory noise is very tiring.https://t.co/NysDAiABMu

Study finds video chats fatigue humans due to the intense up-close eye contact, constant self-view in real time, reduced mobility, and increased cognitive load ??https://t.co/4R2pinffP9
