Counterproductive Work Behavior Checklist (CWB-C)

The two versions (full 45-item and short 33-item) of the Counterproductive Work Behavior Checklist (CWB-C) assess counterproductive work behavior (e.g., aggression, sabotage, theft, and withdrawal). It asks respondents to indicate how often they have done each behavior at work, and it can be used to indicate the behavior of others, such as coworkers or subordinates. Details of the scale and its development are in Spector, P. E., Fox, S., Penney, L. M., Bruursema, K., Goh, A., & Kessler, S. (2006). The dimensionality of counterproductivity: Are all counterproductive behaviors created equal? Journal of Vocational Behavior, 68, 446-460.
