Abstract

Cyberloafing occurs when employees use technology to loaf instead of work. Despite mounting organizational concern and psychological research on cyberloafing, research provides little actionable guidance to address cyberloafing. Therefore, the present study builds on previous cyberloafing investigations in three primary ways. First, we utilize a person-situation framework to compare personological and situational construct domains. Second, we extend the cyberloafing nomological network by investigating previously unexamined, yet powerful, predictors. Third, we employ a multivariate approach to identify the most important cyberloafing antecedents. From seven cyberloafing constructs, we found that boredom, logical reasoning, and interpersonal conflict were the most important correlates. Our results highlight novel, important predictors of cyberloafing and allow us to provide empirically-based recommendations for developing cyberloafing interventions.

网络漫游:调查新的和已知的预测因子的重要性和含义
当员工使用科技产品闲逛而不是工作时,就会出现网络闲逛。尽管越来越多的组织关注和心理研究对网络闲逛,研究提供了很少可行的指导,以解决网络闲逛。因此,本研究以三种主要方式建立在以前的网络闲逛调查的基础上。首先,我们利用人-情境框架来比较人格和情境建构域。其次,我们通过调查以前未经检验但功能强大的预测因子,扩展了网络闲逛的规律网络。第三,我们采用多元方法来识别最重要的网络闲逛前因。从七个网络闲逛的构念中,我们发现无聊、逻辑推理和人际冲突是最重要的相关因素。我们的研究结果强调了网络闲逛的新颖、重要的预测因素,并允许我们为开发网络闲逛干预措施提供基于经验的建议。
