| Summary: | WhatsApp communication issues often occur in any government or private organization. The problem of
WhatsApp communication that employers give work instructions outside working hours has caused work
stress to employees. Drawing form, the communication perspectives, this study applies Situational Theory
of Public (STP) to identify the perception of the situation and communication behaviors formed among
employees of Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM). The specific objective of this study is to identify the
perceptions and communication behaviors of employees in problem situations when employers give work
instructions outside of working hours via WhatsApp. This information can influence the way individuals engage in search activities, selection, and information processing as a step to the problem-solving process
from the point of view of WhatsApp communication at UPM. This study also examined the relationship
between situational perceptions and communication behaviors. This study used a questionnaire as an
instrument. The sample (N=364) comprising UPM employees have responded to this study. The result
showed that significantly the identification of constraints recognition among UPM employees is the most
important predictor variable in communication behavior (ß = .109, p <.05) and contributed a variance of
34%. The involvement recognition the major second predictor that contributed in communication
behavior was (β = .30, p <.05) with a variance contribution of 33%. Next, problem recognition (β = .32, p
<.05) with a variance contribution of 26% is a predictor that less contributes to communication behavior.
A critical discussion of WhatsApp communication problem solving is able to provide significant conclusions
to the organization to frame more effective communication. |
