dc.description.abstractGiven the consequences associated with employee revenge, gaining insight into antecedents of revenge in response to transgressions in the workplace is of utmost importance. The present program of research aimed to gain further insight into workplace revenge, by examining novel predictors yet to be explored within the organizational literature: HEXACO personality traits and perceptions of organizational politics (POP). Data was collected online cross-nationally from 239 employees spanning various organizations and industries. Results demonstrated that HEXACO Honesty-Humility and Conscientiousness significantly predict revenge responses, above and beyond other HEXACO personality traits. Perceptions of organizational politics (POP) however was not a significant predictor of revenge responses, nor did it act as a moderator of the relationship between Honesty-Humility and POP. The present study also examined trends between personality traits and characterizations of revenge, however due to small sample sizes these results were inconclusive. Implications of these findings and future research directions are discussed.en_US
