| Summary: | Nomophobia is considered as a modern age phobia introduced in our lives as a byproduct of
the interaction between human beings and new mobile communication technologies, especially
smartphones. Many studies more focus on investigating the sources of nomophobia and still
questioning about its impacts on human beings. Currently, no study was found to test the
relationship between nomophobia with work-life balance and work performance aspects
especially in a formal organization setting. Therefore, the present study intends to address the
gaps in existing past research through investigation on the relationship of nomophobia with
work life balance work-family conflict, family-work conflict, work-family enrichment, family�work enrichment, work demand and work performance among civil servants working in eight
organizations in the north region of Malaysia. This study also attempts to investigate two
moderation effects namely gender (male and female), and generation (baby boomer, X and Y).
A quantitative approach was utilized and after initial data screening, 250 out of 286 responses
were analysed using AMOS software for Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The results
revealed statistically significant direct relationships of nomophobia, on work-life balance
aspects except for family-work enrichment. In multi-group analysis, there were distinctions
between the moderating effect of both gender and generation on various aspect of work life
balance and work performance. In conclusion, this research offers a novel perspective in work
life-balance and work performance areas especially in a developing country like Malaysia. |
