“…In a study conducted on the variables affecting cyberloafing, it was determined that SA was the variable that predicted cyberloafing behaviour the most (Saritepeci, 2020). Similarly another research showed that smartphone cyberloafing in class has a significant effect on SA (Gözüm et al, 2020).…”

BackgroundThe COVID‐19 pandemic has spread quickly, e‐learning became compulsory and disseminated throughout the world. During the pandemic, smartphones are frequently used to access e‐learning content, but connecting to technological tools increased the risk of cyberloafing during e‐courses. Currently, there are a limited number of studies on how e‐learning will evolve under compulsory conditions.ObjectivesThis study aimed to investigate the relationship between emotion regulation, e‐learning readiness, technology usage status (TUS), in‐class smartphone cyberloafing, and smartphone addiction (SA) of the students during the pandemic.MethodsIn total 1294 students participated in this study. A research model was tested by structural equation modelling.Results and ConclusionThe findings of this study indicated that there is a relationship between TUS and SA. Emotion regulation was related to SA. E‐learning readiness levels can help to explain cyberloafing. This study presents a conceptual model of the variables that affect cyberloafing in the context of the e‐learning environment.

“…Another study of 885 undergraduates by Gokcearslan et al (2018) reports that there is a positive correlation between cyberloafing and smartphone addiction. Gozum et al (2020), in a study conducted with 306 pre-school teacher candidates, found that smartphone addiction increased with the increase in cyberloafing in the classroom. Saritepeci (2019), in his study with 269 high school freshmen, states that students' smartphone addiction levels are one of the main predictors of cyberloafing behaviors.…”

With the increase in smartphone use, smartphone addiction has gained immense popularity and there has been a lot of research into smartphone addiction. Nonetheless, research examining the complex relationships between cyberloafing and smartphone addiction is still insufficient. Thus, the present study aims to establish the mediating role of fear of missing out, which is a cognitive and emotional process, in the effect of university students’ level of cyberloafing upon their smartphone addiction level. The study group of the research is represented by 338 students receiving formation training in the faculty of education, at a state university. For the purpose of data collection, the Smartphone Addiction Scale - Short version, the Cyberloafing Scale, and the Fear of Missing Out Scale were used. The model was tested using structural equation modeling and bootstrapping. Structural equation modeling results provide evidence of indirect effects of cyberloafing on smartphone addiction partial mediated by fear of missing out. According to the Bootstrapping method, fear of missing out has an indirectly significant role in the relationship between cyberloafing and smartphone addiction. The findings emphasized the role of fear of missing out in explaining the relationship between cyberloafing and smartphone addiction. The study concludes by discussing relevant conclusions in the literature, and putting forth several recommendations based on these conclusions.

“…Se ha observado que el nivel de ciberloafing está cerca del nivel medio y especialmente en las clases, los estudiantes muestran los comportamientos de compartir contenidos y acceder a contenidos en línea (Gezgin y Sarsar 2020, p. 243). Gözüm et al, (2020) examinaron la relación entre las variables de preparación para el aprendizaje móvil (m-learning) de los candidatos a maestros de preescolar, el ciberloafing, la nomofobia y la adicción a los smartphones. El resultado de la investigación es que los smartphones que los candidatos a maestros de preescolar utilizan tanto para el m-learning como para el ciberloafing en el aula tienen un efecto sobre la nomofobia y la adicción a los smartphones.…”

“…Según este resultado, se apoyó la hipótesis 1 (H1). En un estudio realizado por Gözüm et al (2020), los investigadores descubrieron que la nomofobia afecta directa y positivamente al ciberloafing en clase y a la adicción a los smartphones. Según los resultados de otro estudio en el que participaron 666 profesores en formación, el ciberloafing predijo significativamente el nivel de nomofobia (İşçitürk 2020).…”

Due to the dynamic nature of tourism, it is essential to follow and adopt the developing technology both to meet the changing demand structure and to facilitate the internal operation of the business. However, while technology has a positive effect on organizations in terms of travel, tourist flow and management, the employees’ internet access for non-work purposes during work time causes the development of cyberloafing and nomophobia behavior. Since information and communication technologies are used in every field of the tourism sector, it is thought that it will be important to examine the relationship between cyberloafing and nomophobia, specifically on the employees in the tourism sector. The main aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between nomophobia and cyberloafing among hotel employees. The research was conducted with a total of 300 employees in accommodation sector in Antalya, Turkey. According to the results of the study, it can be said that the nomophobic and cyberloafing levels of the hotel employees are moderate. The results revealed that nomophobia explained 34.2% of the variance in cyberloafing. The managerial implications are discussed based on the study results, and directions for future research are provided.
