Dissertation Abstract

The rising incidents of data breaches have become a significant societal concern and employees are often considered the weakest link due to their intentional or accidental actions regarding information security (IS). To ensure that employees behave appropriately, organizations implemented IS policies, but employees are not motivated to comply with compulsory IS policies for reasons of convenience; often viewing IS policies as impediments to their work efficiency. Extrinsic motivation based on using punishment is the principal method used by researchers and managers to increase IS policy compliance; however, its efficacy has been questioned because of inconsistent and contradictory research results. Meanwhile, IS policy compliance researchers have ignored intrinsic motivation even though intrinsic motivation is more effective than extrinsic motivation. Researchers have used self-determination theory (SDT) to successfully explain intrinsic motivation in fields such as education, health, and fitness, but the theory has not been fully applied in IS. SDT scholars inform that satisfaction of the basic needs for autonomy, competence, and relatedness leads to improved psychological well-being, motivation, and performance. In this quantitative, non-experimental study, 155 randomly selected participants from SurveyMonkey Audience, a participant recruitment service, completed an online survey consisting of the Basic Need Satisfaction at Work Scale and the Compliant Behavior Scale. Multiple regression was used to analyze the data and determine how accurate the predictor variables of perceived autonomy, perceived competence and perceived relatedness predict the criterion variable of security policy compliant behavior. Results indicated that perceived autonomy, perceived competence, and perceived relatedness significantly predicted security policy compliant behavior (adj. R2 = .158, p < .001). The predictive capability of the relationship was weak as the three predictor variables accounted for only 15.8% of the variability in the criterion variable, and so 84.2% of the variability in the criterion variable was unaccounted for. Additionally, the perceived competence predictor variable made the only significant contribution when explaining the criterion variable (Beta = 0.516, p < .001). A key conclusion was that although the finding that perceived competence was the only predictor variable that made a significant contribution was unexpected, the finding that the overall model was significant suggests that SDT has merit in IS policy compliance research. Recommendations for future research included replicating this study using a different population such as participants from a single company and conducting a qualitative or mixed-method study to determine what other variables may account for security policy compliant behavior
