What has caused most of the fatigue among women is the so-called “self-care” of social psychologists, caused by watching yourself in a video conference. Prolonged concentration can lead to negative emotions or what researchers call “mirror anxiety”.
Zoom fatigue was also found to be caused by physical instability. Unlike face-to-face meetings where people can walk, walk or stretch, video conferences limit movement.
