此前的研究强调了员工技术成瘾或过度使用可能在工作场所产生的负面影响。本研究探讨人格,通过使用五因素模型(FFM),和问题和病理技术(互联网和短信)的使用。个性被发现可以预测技术使用的某些方面。具体来说,不诚实是负相关的问题互联网使用。然而,实况调查并没有增加对病理性互联网使用或问题和病理性短信使用的预测。这些研究结果表明,一些方面的实况调查可能是有用的,在解释为什么某些员工可能倾向于发展问题使用倾向。目前的研究结果的影响,以及局限性和未来的发展方向进行了讨论。爱思唯尔有限公司出版
Prior research has stressed the negative effects employee technology addiction, or excessive use, may have in the workplace. This study explored personality, through use of the Five Factor Model (FFM), and problem and pathological technology (Internet and text-messaging) use. Personality was found to predict certain aspects of technology use. Specifically, conscientiousness was negatively related to problem Internet use. However, the FFM did not add to the prediction of pathological Internet use or problem and pathological text-messaging use. These findings suggest that some dimensions of the FFM may be useful in explaining why certain employees may be predisposed to developing problem use tendencies. Implications of the current findings as well as limitations and future directions are discussed. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
