Abstract
Although there is a growing body of research about the relationship between cyberloafing and personality traits, many important questions remain unanswered. In particular, it is still unclear whether FoMO is related to cyberloafing, and what the mechanism behind the cyberloafing-personality traits link is. The present study addresses this gap by examining the mediator role of FoMO on the relationship between cyberloafing and personality traits. To this end, suvey data, collected from 443 bank employees, was used to test hypotheses. Results showed that FoMO mediates the negative relationship between conscientiousness and cyberloafing. Furthermore, it was found that FoMO is negatively associated with cyberloafing.
