Sumario:The objective of this study was to examine the incremental validity of measures of Organisational Disenchantment and Enchantment over demographic, personality, burnout and workaholism factors in explaining Counterproductive Work Behaviours (CWB). Four hundred adults participated in an online survey to assess their Big Five personality traits, job burnout, disenchantment, enchantment, workaholism (considering both facet and domain levels), and self-reported CWBs. Our analysis revealed that participant sex, along with the personality traits of Agreeableness and Neuroticism, were significantly associated with job disenchantment and enchantment. Further, a regression analysis with CWB as the criterion variable indicated that sex, age, job disenchantment, and low levels of Conscientiousness accounted for approximately 27 % of the variance in these behaviours. Implications are considered.
