In this study, in order to determine the place and importance of the concept of 'technostress', which is a unique topic for the literature, English articles in the Web of Science (WoS) database were analyzed by bibliometric analysis method. The distribution of 748 articles analyzed covers a period of 41 years between 1982 and 2023. During this period, an increase in the number of articles published and citations to articles was observed. In particular, the year 2023 stands out with a remarkable increase in studies on technostress. A total of 181 research articles were published in this year, making 2023 the most productive year in terms of technostress studies. When the field distribution of the articles examining the concept of technostress is analyzed, it is seen that the most articles were written in the fields of Management (314) and Communication (168). "Technostress: Technological Antecedents and Implications" is the most influential article in the field with 831 citations, and Monideepa Tarafdar from the University of Massachusetts is the most prolific author with 22 articles. The countries publishing the most articles on technostress are the USA (145) and China (125), and the most influential journal in this field is Computers in Human Behavior. As a result of common word analysis, keywords frequently associated with the concept of technostress include Covid-19, stress, social media, job satisfaction, technostress creators, well-being, information overload, burnout, mental health, job performance, work-family conflict and anxiety. The findings reveal that there is an intense research interest in the effects of technostress in various areas such as social and work life. By providing a comprehensive and in-depth overview of the technostress literature, the study is expected to provide a detailed analysis of existing research and provide directions for future research.
