Unsurprisingly, given the feelings of superiority associated with the dark triad, these individuals tend to feel <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/pii\/S0191886912004503\">very capable of outsmarting others<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Among our participants, we found that psychopathy, Machiavellianism, and narcissism were associated with cyberloafing behaviours through their relationships with perceived ability to deceive. In other words, higher levels of dark triad traits led to a greater belief in the ability to get away with things, which in turn was related to higher levels of cyberloafing.<br \/>\n<div id=\"attachment_40055\" style=\"width: 690px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-40055\" src=\"https:\/\/world.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/triadtraits.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"680\" height=\"309\" class=\"size-full wp-image-40055\" srcset=\"https:\/\/world.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/triadtraits.png 680w, https:\/\/world.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/triadtraits-250x114.png 250w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-40055\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The relationship between dark triad traits, perceived ability to deceive (PATD) and cyberloafing. Emily Lowe-Calverley, Author provided<\/p><\/div><\/p>\n<p>Our findings suggest that individuals high in subclinical psychopathy will engage in some cyberloafing behaviours regardless of their perceived ability to deceive. This fits with the nature of psychopathy: individuals high in psychopathic traits tend to lack remorse and don\u2019t feel guilty, and perhaps are not too concerned with getting caught.<\/p>\n<p>More research is needed, given that our study was self-reporting and favoured female participants, but the results raise some interesting questions for workplaces and their ability to handle this behaviour.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Should the boss be concerned?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The organisational consequences of cyberloafing can range from brief employee distraction to more serious drain on company resources or security (for example, slower network performance or computer viruses).<\/p>\n<p>Our study suggests that if an employer wants to reduce cyberloafing, strategies that counter employees\u2019 perceived ability to deceive could be useful. Stressing accountability could act as a deterrent.<\/p>\n<p>Employees could be informed that all web-based activity will be monitored, but surveillance runs the risk of invading employee privacy and creating an unpleasant work environment.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, cyberloafing is not a purely negative workplace behaviour. Internet browsing can have a positive impact on <a href=\"http:\/\/ink.library.smu.edu.sg\/cgi\/viewcontent.cgi?article=5983&amp;context=lkcsb_research\">employees\u2019s emotions<\/a>, allowing a measure of stress release. It can also <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tandfonline.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1080\/0144929X.2014.928744\">boost productivity<\/a> in some circumstances by providing employees with a short break so they can recover their concentration.<br \/>\n<div id=\"attachment_40056\" style=\"width: 690px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-40056\" src=\"https:\/\/world.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/constantlyconnected.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"680\" height=\"393\" class=\"size-full wp-image-40056\" srcset=\"https:\/\/world.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/constantlyconnected.jpg 680w, https:\/\/world.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/constantlyconnected-250x144.jpg 250w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-40056\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Feeling constantly connected? You\u2019re not the only one. Ivan Rigamonti\/Flickr,<\/p><\/div><\/p>\n<p><strong>Hyperconnectivity is also an issue<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>While employees slip personal online activities into their work time, their work may also be encroaching on their personal lives.<\/p>\n<p>Devices and online tools encourage 24-7 connectivity to the workplace. One study suggests that employees who receive company-provided smartphones feel expected to be <a href=\"http:\/\/www.anzam.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/pdf-manager\/2575_044.PDF\">constantly connected<\/a> and responsive to work at all times.<\/p>\n<p>For employers this is both good and bad news. The perception of being \u201con call\u201d might increase the volume of work they get from their employee. However, constant connection might lead to exhausted, burnt-out workers.<\/p>\n<p>Employees have traditionally sought to find \u201cwork-life balance\u201d, but for some people this line is now blurred.<\/p>\n<p>Cyberloafing and hyper-connectivity can be seen as two sides of the same coin. People are engaging in personal online activities while in the workplace, and work activities while at home.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A new definition of \u2018balance\u2019?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Some studies suggest that the terminology should evolve, with employees now seeking <a href=\"https:\/\/wmich.pure.elsevier.com\/en\/publications\/it-was-the-best-of-times-it-was-the-worst-of-times-the-expiration\">\u201cwork-life <em>flexibility<\/em>\u201d<\/a>, where an employee controls the amount of time they dedicate to work and life, integrating the two as necessary.<\/p>\n<p>For example, you might take a work call while watching your child\u2019s soccer match, but duck out of work to post your best friend\u2019s birthday present. The key point is that the employee feels they have the ability to handle competing demands.<\/p>\n<p>Exploratory research indicates that <a href=\"http:\/\/dl.acm.org\/citation.cfm?id=3004724\">home-work boundary flexibility is associated with higher job satisfaction<\/a>. The same study suggests that for those with a permeable work boundary (that is, the ability to do personal tasks at work), there was less time-based work and family conflict. However for those with a permeable home boundary (allowing work tasks to be done during personal time), there was more time-based work and family conflict.<\/p>\n<p>Our study suggests that a worker\u2019s perceived ability to take advantage of an employer is a key part of cyberloafing. But it\u2019s a two-way street: employers need to think about whether they are also taking advantage of their hyper-connected workers.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Author Bios: <\/strong>Emily Lowe-Calverley is a PhD Candidate in Cyberpsychology and Rachel Grieve is a Senior Lecturer in Psychology both at the University of Tasmania<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sending personal emails, a bit of online shopping, checking out your friend\u2019s holiday snaps on Facebook: if you break up your work day with online activities that aren\u2019t work-related, you may be guilty of \u201ccyberloafing\u201d.
