Cyberloafing and Workplace Behavior Personal Information Management and User Behavior Mind wandering and attention

Abstract

Cyberloafing, defined as non-work-related Internet use during work hours, has brought about considerable loss of both employees' performance and organization's profits all over the world. Accordingly, more and more researchers have tried to explore the predictors of cyberloafing. While most researchers pay attention to some organization conditions or personal emotions, we suppose some personal characteristics also matter, such as the trait of procrastination and the tendency of compulsive Internet use. 272 questionnaires were distributed among the graduate and doctoral students who are available to the Internet and do research online nearly every day. 255 effective questionnaires have been got. The results of the multiple regression analysis have proved that both trait procrastination and the tendency of compulsive Internet use are significant predictors of the prevalence of cyberloafing.
