Data was gathered through questionnaire survey completed by 266 university staff from three public universities located in the Northern region of peninsular Malaysia. The regression results found that job dissatisfaction is an important factor in influencing university staff to be engaged in counterproductive work behavior. The practical implications of this finding for understanding the hypothesized relationship are discussed.
