Moderation Effect of Religious Commitment on Phubbing's Impact on Cyberloafing, Mediated by Psychological Well-being

Abstract

This research aims to understand the role of Religious Commitment on Phubbing Cyberloafing, mediated by Psychological Well-Being, in religious institutions in Banyumas Regency. Religious Commitment refers to an individual's level of engagement in religious practices, including frequency, participation, and adherence to moral rules. It is treated as a moderating variable to weaken deviant social behaviors. In this research context, Phubbing, which leads to Cyberloafing, is considered a form of social deviance as it involves ignoring others to browse the internet using company resources. Additionally, the lack of Psychological Well-Being as a mediator can help explain why Phubbing leads to Cyberloafing. The study's subjects consist of 100 employees working in religiously affiliated institutions such as the Ministry of Religious Affairs, Qur'anic Educational Institutions, Madrasah
Ibtidaiyah (Islamic elementary schools), Madrasah Tsanawiyah (Islamic junior high schools), Madrasah Aliyah (Islamic senior high schools), and Islamic boarding schools (Pesantren) in Banyumas, Central Java, Indonesia. Respondents were selected using snowball sampling, which utilizes social networks to reach individuals who are difficult to access directly. Data analysis in this research employs Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) using the Smart PLS application. The validity test requires an outer loading
> 0.7 and an Average Variance Extracted (AVE) value, while the reliability test requires a Cronbach's alpha > 0.7.
