Abstract Based on self-conscious emotion theory, this study explores why and how leaders’ cyberloafing behavior affects justice rule adherence at the within-person level, through analysis of 570 observational data of 73 bank branch directors collected with the experience sampling method for 10 consecutive working days. The results show that: ① At the within-person level, leaders’ cyberloafing behavior positively affects guilt. ② How the guilt caused by leaders’ cyberloafing behavior affects justice rule adherence depends on leader’s public self-awareness. When public self-awareness is high, the relationship between guilt and justice rule adherence at the within-person level is positive, while the relationship is negative when public self-awareness is low. ③ Public self-awareness moderates the within-person level indirect effect of leaders’ cyberloafing behavior on justice rule adherence via guilt. Specifically, the indirect effect is positive under high level of public self-awareness and negative under low level of public self-awareness.
