%X this study examines work alienation (wa) as an antecedent of the workplace deviance targeting the organization, co-workers and clients. the model tested is based on the seeman's (1959) definition of work alienation (wa), and predicts influences of the three wa dimensions of wa (powerlessness, meaninglessness, and self-estrangement) on workplace deviance. data were collected from 99 of the 156 (63.5%) teachers at a district high school in spain. structural equation modeling (sem) results show that, contrary to expectations, wa dimensions exerted different, and even opposite, significant effects on workplace deviance. as such, meaninglessness (mln) and powerlessness (pln) showed significant influences on workplace deviance, but in the case of powerlessness (pln) this association was negative. self-estrangement (ses) failed in predicting workplace deviance. implications of the results are discussed, and limitations and future research directions are also offered.
