由员工发起的自带设备（BYOD）的采用是指为私人和商业目的提供和使用个人移动的设备和应用程序。这种自下而上的现象并非由管理人员发起，而是与同时带来业务机会和威胁的反向IT采用逻辑相对应。因此，管理人员面临着员工这种非选择的BYOD使用，因此采取了不同的应对策略。本研究旨在探讨管理者科普BYOD现象所采取的适应策略。为此，我们在组织决策的背景下操作的应对模式的用户适应（CMUA）进行调查，解决337高层管理人员。我们的主要研究结果表明，CMUA结构的影响根据不同的时期（前或后实施）。那些已经实施措施来规范自带设备使用的人和那些没有实施措施的人之间的应对策略不同。我们通过整合BYOD相关的机会和威胁的感知，并通过在采取应对策略的决策过程中阐明，为理论做出贡献。本研究的管理贡献对应于改善企业信息的保护和BYOD相关利益的最大化。
The adoption of Bring Your Own Device (BYOD), initiated by employees, refers to the provision and use of personal mobile devices and applications for both private and business purposes. This bottom-up phenomenon, not initiated by managers, corresponds to a reversed IT adoption logic that simultaneously entails business opportunities and threats. Managers are thus confronted with this unchosen BYOD usage by employees and consequently adopt different coping strategies. This research aims to investigate the adaptation strategies embraced by managers to cope with the BYOD phenomenon. To this end, we operationalized the coping model of user adaptation (CMUA) in the organizational decision-making context to conduct a survey addressing 337 top managers. Our main results indicate that the impact of the CMUA constructs varies according to the period (pre- or post-implementation). The coping strategies differ between those who have already implemented measures to regulate BYOD usage and those who have not. We contribute to theory by integrating the perception of BYOD-related opportunities and threats and by shedding light on the decisional processes in the adoption of coping strategies. The managerial contributions of this research correspond to the improved protection of corporate information and the maximization of BYOD-related benefits.
