Moral disengagement (MD) has been characterized as a uniquely important predictor of counterproductive work behaviors (CWBs). This study describes the development and validation of a situational judgment test (SJT) for measuring MD in the workplace, which offers potential advantages over existing Likert‐type scales. The development/validation efforts involved two independent rounds of subject‐matter expert (SME) review and data collected from three independent samples. The resulting test, labeled the MD‐SJT, displayed high reliability, was related to an established measure of MD as well as hypothesized personality variables, and was incrementally predictive of CWBs above the established measure of MD. This study advances knowledge pertaining to the assessment of MD, which is a critically important construct in the workplace.

通过情境判断测试衡量道德疏离程度：推进对重要工作场所结构的评估

道德脱离接触（MD）被认为是适得其反的工作行为（CWBs）的唯一重要预测因子。这项研究描述了一种情境判断测试（SJT）的开发和验证，该情境判断测试用于测量工作场所的MD，与现有的Likert型量表相比，它具有潜在的优势。开发/验证工作涉及两轮独立的主题专家（SME）审查和从三个独立样本中收集的数据。所得结果标记为MD-SJT，显示出高度的可靠性，它与既定的MD测度以及假设的人格变量有关，并且在既定的MD测度之上逐步预测了CWB。这项研究提高了有关MD评估的知识，MD是工作场所中至关重要的构造。
