Abstract
This cross-sectional study investigated the emotional impact of educational productivity videos on YouTube. A Qualtrics survey, distributed via YouTube and Instagram, collected data from 595 respondents across 60 countries. Results showed that while most viewers felt motivated and inspired, a significant portion experienced anxiety or inadequacy. Younger viewers were more prone to anxiety. Qualitative data revealed a need for more relatable routines, realistic portrayals of setbacks, and strategies for handling unmet goals in future productivity videos.
