Summary/Abstract: The present paper reports on the findings of a study conducted for the first author’s doctoral thesis which constructed a process-focused path model for a relatively newly identified type of civilization stress – infostress. In the theoretical introduction, the authors present the theoretical foundations and empirical anchoring of infostress and review the current literature on how temperament and emotional intelligence might affect its levels and coping. In the empirical part, they present regression and path analyses and conclude with a proposition of a structural model of infostress reaction in which emotional reactivity and briskness are the key predictors while the role of emotional intelligence pales.
