“…According to the results of Tsai's (2023) study in which he examined the cyberloa ng behaviors of employees in the context of the conservation of resources (COR) theory; It has been argued that cyberloa ng increases productivity by drawing the attention of individuals in another direction and it has a positive effect on innovation (27). In the study of Karabulut and Akar (2020) with pre-service teachers, it was determined that there was a weak positive correlation between the innovative characteristics and cyberloa ng behaviors of the participants (27,28).…”

“…Thus, cyberloafing may enhance performance by providing a learning environment and fostering creativity. In support of this motive, past research shows a positive relationship between cyberloafing and creativity (Tsai, 2023), innovative work behavior (Derin & Gökçe, 2016), creative performance (Sawirti & Mayasari, 2017), intrinsic and extrinsic motivation (Kaptangil et al, 2021), and productivity (Saleh et al, 2018). However, these results are contingent on the type of cyberloafing engaged in.…”

In their review of the literature, Lim and Teo (2022) detail the individual, interpersonal, and situational antecedents of cyberloafing, which sheds light on which employees may be predisposed toward this behavior (e.g., younger, male, single, highly educated, and extraverts). Furthermore, they point out that certain situational factors enhance the likelihood of cyberloafing at work (e.g., easy access to the Internet at work, low visibility of one's computer screen, coworker approval of or engagement in the behavior). Although the who and when are informative, an important piece of the puzzle is missing, the why. We need to move beyond descriptive research and seek to identify the motives driving employees' choice to cyberloaf. This knowledge will help determine whether cyberloafing is harmful or helpful as well as how company policies should approach this behavior.

“…Information technology and the spread of the internet among people combine the personality and business of people in the workplace so that sometimes employees can use the internet to perform their tasks more efficiently (Glassman et al , 2015). In addition, cyberloafing is a key factor in increasing daily creativity and proactive behaviour (Tsai, 2023). Most employees believe that using the internet should be for both personal and business purposes, but sometimes cyberloafing may have negative consequences such as reduced productivity levels, increased financial losses, exposure to risk arising from increasing debts (Liberman et al , 2011) and increasing workplace loneliness (Yang et al , 2022).…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to determine the attractiveness or unattractiveness of cyberloafing in the workplace using Q methodology and the Kano model. Design/methodology/approach The perception of employees towards cyberloafing was investigated based on Q methodology, and then they were prioritized using Kano model. Ten IT companies were selected for the case study. In this study, a mixed method was used. First, 30 participants were interviewed. Next, after extracting the comments, Q-matrix was presented to 30 participants and they completed the matrix cells. Finally, Kano questionnaire was designed using the items obtained from Q methodology and distributed among 30 participants. Findings Q methodology led to nine perceptions, and the priorities of Kano model were proponents of increasing employees' dependence on the internet, economic thinkers, the indifferent, dissatisfied, proponents of receiving information, self-control proponents, the profit-minded, mind destroyer and satisfaction-oriented. Cyberloafing is considered unattractiveness with adverse effects. The combination of Q methodology and Kano model can improve the analysis of the results. Originality/value This study is one of the few studies in which Q methodology is improved by Kano model. In the past, Q methodology alone examined people’s perception, but by combining these two methods, it is determined which perception is more satisfying and which one is more important, and then a general result can be reached.
