TL;DR: In this paper, a typology of deviant workplace behaviors using multidimensional scaling techniques was developed, and it was found that employee deviance appears to fall into four distinct categories: production deviance, property deviances, political deviance and personal aggression.
Abstract: In this study, we developed a typology of deviant workplace behaviors using multidimensional scaling techniques. Results suggest that deviant workplace behaviors vary along two dimensions: minor versus serious, and interpersonal versus organizational. On the basis of these two dimensions, employee deviance appears to fall into four distinct categories: production deviance, property deviance, political deviance, and personal aggression. Theoretical and empirical implications are discussed.

TL;DR: This paper examined the consequences of abusive supervisor behavior and found that those who perceived their supervisors to be more abusive were more likely to quit their jobs, while those who remained with their jobs were associated with lower job and life satisfaction, lower normative and affective commitment, and higher continuance commitment, conflict between work and family, and psychological distress.
Abstract: Drawing on justice theory, the author examined the consequences of abusive supervisor behavior. As expected, subordinates who perceived their supervisors were more abusive were more likely to quit their jobs. For subordinates who remained with their jobs, abusive supervision was associated with lower job and life satisfaction, lower normative and affective commitment, and higher continuance commitment, conflict between work and family, and psychological distress. Organizational justice mediated most of these effects, and job mobility moderated some of the deleterious effects of abusive supervision.

TL;DR: A broad, theoretically derived measure(s) of deviant behavior in the workplace found to have internal reliabilities of .81 and .78, respectively and verified that a 2-factor structure had acceptable fit.
Abstract: The purpose of this research was to develop broad, theoretically derived measure(s) of deviant behavior in the workplace Two scales were developed: a 12-item scale of organizational deviance (deviant behaviors directly harmful to the organization) and a 7-item scale of interpersonal deviance (deviant behaviors directly harmful to other individuals within the organization) These scales were found to have internal reliabilities of 81 and 78, respectively Confirmatory factor analysis verified that a 2-factor structure had acceptable fit Preliminary evidence of construct validity is also provided The implications of this instrument for future empirical research on workplace deviance are discussed

TL;DR: A review of the literature that summarizes what is known about the antecedents and consequences of abusive supervision, provides the basis for an emergent model that integrates extant empirical work and suggests directions for future research as mentioned in this paper.
