Abstract: We conducted two empirical studies with full-item employees (N1 = 250, N2 = 300) to validate the proliferation of nine workplace aggression constructs. Factor analysis supports a four-factor structure for the workplace aggression items, with these four factors demonstrating distinct relationships with various external criteria, providing evidence for discriminant validity.
