Fluid reasoning as a predictor of deviant workplace behaviors
Relative to the sizable body of work investigating the relationship between intelligence and task performance, one facet of overall job performance, very little research has been conducted on the relationship between intelligence and counterproductive work behavior, a different but equally important facet of job performance. Furthermore, the little research that has been conducted on the intelligence-counterproductive work behavior relationship has yielded entirely inconsistent results - while some researchers have found a negative relationship between intelligence and counterproductive work behavior, others have found null or positive relationships. This, coupled with the reality that none of these studies have explicitly tested causal mechanisms, provides us with an entirely unclear understanding of this relationship. Thus, the goal of this dissertation is to more carefully examine the potential relationship(s) between intelligence and counterproductive work behavior by (a) capturing both overt and covert counterproductive work behaviors, (b) testing a previously identified, but thus far untested, mediating mechanism, and (c) incorporating moderators, selected based upon criminology research that has leveraged a psychological approach in the explanation of individual deviance.
