The title of my thesis is: Social Undermining in the Workplace, Personality, and Counterproductive Work Behavior.

[align=center]Abstract[/align] The purpose of this study is toinvestigate the role that personality plays in predicting individualreactions to social undermining. There is limited empirical researchinvestigating social undermining in the workplace, and no studies thatexplicitly examine whether personality can influence individuals’reactions to social undermining. Social undermining consists of a groupof behaviors intended to hinder a worker’s ability to establish andmaintain positive interpersonal relationships, work-related success,and a favorable reputation. Psychologists typically refer topersonality as the “Big Five,” and include the dimensions ofAgreeableness, Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Openness to Experience,and Neuroticism. Participants will be asked to complete a web-basedsurvey of social undermining, personality, intention to quit,organizational commitment, and counterproductive work behaviors (i.e.,wasting time, calling in “sick,” leaving work early). It is predictedthat when participants’ experience of social undermining at work theywill have greater intentions to quit, less commitment to theorganization, and exhibit greater numbers of counterproductive workbehaviors than participants who do not experience social undermining.High levels of conscientiousness are likely to buffer the effects ofsocial undermining on counterproductive behavior whereas high levels ofneuroticism are likely to strengthen the relationship of socialundermining and counterproductive behavior.

I'm a psychology major.
