While a growing number of teachers use information and communication technology (ICT) for work tasks outside the formal working hours and premises, research is inconclusive how this relates to their work-life balance. Following calls to examine the antecedents and moderating mechanisms of such behavior, the present study aims to examine how technology acceptance relates to work-related ICT use after hours (WIA) and work-life balance, as well as how employees' integration preference affects these relationships. Data was collected among 288 secondary school teachers in Flanders (Belgium) concerning their use of digital learning environments (DLE) beyond school grounds and school hours. Structural equation modelling shows that social influence reduces teachers' work-life balance mediated by WIA. While there was no support for other technology acceptance factors or the moderating role of integration preference, performance expectancy of the DLE and integration preference were associated with a higher work-life balance. Hereby, this study contributes to research on WIA by integrating the technology acceptance framework with boundary theory and work-life research. Overall, the findings show that DLE have an impact on teachers’ work-life balance independent of technological factors or their personal preference, underscoring the importance of school policies that cement the use of DLE in the private domain.

教师下班后对数字学习环境的接受和使用:对工作与生活平衡的影响和整合偏好的作用

虽然越来越多的教师在正式工作时间和场所之外使用信息和通信技术 (ICT) 完成工作任务,但研究尚无定论,这与他们的工作与生活平衡有何关系。在要求检查此类行为的前因和调节机制之后,本研究旨在检查技术接受度与下班后与工作相关的 ICT 使用 (WIA) 和工作与生活平衡之间的关系,以及员工的融合偏好如何影响这些关系。收集了法兰德斯(比利时)的 288 名中学教师关于他们在校园和上课时间以外使用数字学习环境 (DLE) 的数据。结构方程模型表明,社会影响降低了 WIA 介导的教师工作与生活的平衡。虽然不支持其他技术接受因素或整合偏好的调节作用,但 DLE 的绩效预期和整合偏好与更高的工作与生活平衡相关。因此,本研究通过将技术接受框架与边界理论和工作生活研究相结合,为 WIA 研究做出贡献。总体而言,研究结果表明,DLE 对教师的工作与生活平衡有影响,而不受技术因素或他们的个人偏好的影响,强调了学校政策在私人领域巩固 DLE 使用的重要性。本研究通过将技术接受框架与边界理论和工作生活研究相结合,为 WIA 研究做出了贡献。总体而言,研究结果表明,DLE 对教师的工作与生活平衡有影响,而不受技术因素或他们的个人偏好的影响,强调了学校政策在私人领域巩固 DLE 使用的重要性。本研究通过将技术接受框架与边界理论和工作生活研究相结合,为 WIA 研究做出了贡献。总体而言,研究结果表明,DLE 对教师的工作与生活平衡有影响,而不受技术因素或他们的个人偏好的影响,强调了学校政策在私人领域巩固 DLE 使用的重要性。
