The Perfect Wave? The Impact Of Kondratieff Cycles On Life Satisfaction In An It-Ecosystem

Kondratieff has predicted that an information and communication cycle will come. This wave has now arrived and will continue over the next decades. The Kondratieff cycle only focused on the economic site of life but excludes the individuals. An IT-ecosystem tried to integrate the human in a system as system itself. From this point of view it is a closer Human-centered design approach, but not closely enough to individuals.In order to focus on humans in this research area, a new questionnaire is being designed. The test should measure the changes in life satisfaction in dependence of technological changes. To validate this questionnaire, a Principal Component Analysis will be conducted. Results will be presented during the conference.
