Abstract

In this study, we examined the distinction between implicit and explicit processes and the ability to predict workplace behaviours with implicit personality. Additional validation of implicit aggression measures, CRT-A and IAT-A was conducted, with the goal of assessing their ability to predict frequency of experiencing hostility emotions in relation to one's job and one's tendency towards workplace deviance. Also, the ability of implicit measures to predict criterion behaviours over and above explicit aggression measure, BAQ, was examined. Participants were at least part-time employees (N=360), who completed CRT-A and IAT-A test, self-reported explicit aggression and hostility and collected workplace deviance appraisals from their co-workers. CRT-A test demonstrated a relation with frequency of experiencing hostility emotion and the tendency towards workplace deviance, while IAT-A test did not show a relationship with criterion behaviours. Furthermore, weak evidence of CRT-A's incremental validity over explicit aggression measure in predicting hostility and workplace deviance was found. Finally, hostility was shown to be unrelated to workplace deviance.
