摘要：Previous research has found that there are certain personality characteristics that predict whether one is likely to become a target of workplace mistreatment, and that these characteristics provoke such behavior (Milam, Spitzmüller, & Penney, 2009). The present paper aims to replicate and expand Milam et al.'s paper by looking at workplace incivility in two parts of the world, the United States and Romania, and two types of sources (self and coworker) to see if this phenomenon is uniquely American, or if it is present in another, very different culture. Our findings indicate that in both countries, low levels of agreeableness and high levels of neuroticism are associated with individuals' reports of receiving higher levels of workplace incivility than their counterparts, and that from the coworkers' perspectives, this incivility is provoked by the targets of the mistreatment
