Abstract

With the rapid development of network technology and information tools, enterprises have been embarking on digital transformation one after another. The mental load of employees has gradually taken the leading position. Therefore, understanding the relationship between mental load and work performance is of great significance for maximizing the role of knowledge workers to improve their work performance. This article will first conduct a comprehensive and systematic review of relevant domestic and foreign literature by using the systematic literature review method. Secondly, it will systematically summarize around three parts: the concept and connotation of mental load, theoretical basis, and the effect on work performance. Finally, on the basis of the above two aspects, it will conduct a literature review and put forward future research prospects.
