Abstract
Information overload represents stress resulting from voluminous or complex resources. Though often discussed, it is seldom measured. To encourage empirical examinations of information overload, the researcher created a literature-derived scale that consists of behavioral, qualitative, and quantitate constructs. Based on preliminary results from a study investigating information overload among immigrants in the U.S., the scale is an adequate instrument for measuring information overload. Specifically, validity and reliability analyses demonstrate that the scale is sound, but can be strengthened.
