Abstract

In this study, I outlined the development, and testing of the reliability and validity, of a Teachers’ Workplace Deviance Behavior Scale (TWDBS). Data were obtained from 3,201 teachers working in the central districts of Konya, Turkey. The scale consists of 4 subdimensions, that is, interpersonal deviance, education deviance, time deviance, and collaboration deviance. The TWDBS scale has been shown to have reliability and validity for use in identifying teachers’ deviant behaviors in the workplace.
