Abstract: | This cross-level field study, involving 187 employees from 35 groups in 20 organizations, examined how individuals' antisocial behaviours at work are shaped by the antisocial behaviour of their co-workers. The research found a positive relationship btw. the level of antisocial behaviour exhibited by an individual and that exhibited by his or her co-workers. Also, it was found that a number of factors moderated this relationship. Finally, it was found that dissatisfaction with co-workers was higher when individuals engaged in less antisocial behaviour than their co-workers. |
