Abstract

ABSTRACT Why do employees actually report workplace Internet abuse? The prevailing theory is that employees make deliberate, calculated decisions only after weighing the pros and cons of reporting. This research proposes a behavioral model in which attitudinal factors are largely responsible for shaping employee intentions to report workplace Internet abuse. Theories of idealism, perceived organizational risk, social influence, and managerial position are synthesized to better understand workers’ motivations. A survey 315 American workers tested the proposed hypotheses and research model using structural equation modeling. Results confirm the validity of the proposed model. Each of the attitudinal factors had a significant impact on employee willingness to report Internet violations. This study underscores the importance of attitudinal factors in a space that primarily portrays employees as rational, unemotional actors.

期刊介绍： As information technology and the Internet become more and more ubiquitous and pervasive in our daily lives, there is an essential need for a more thorough understanding of information security and privacy issues and concerns. The International Journal of Information Security and Privacy (IJISP) creates and fosters a forum where research in the theory and practice of information security and privacy is advanced. IJISP publishes high quality papers dealing with a wide range of issues, ranging from technical, legal, regulatory, organizational, managerial, cultural, ethical and human aspects of information security and privacy, through a balanced mix of theoretical and empirical research articles, case studies, book reviews, tutorials, and editorials. This journal encourages submission of manuscripts that present research frameworks, methods, methodologies, theory development and validation, case studies, simulation results and analysis, technological architectures, infrastructure issues in design, and implementation and maintenance of secure and privacy preserving initiatives.
