The purpose of the current study was to test self-esteem, extraversion, risk-taking propensity, proactive personality and generalized self-efficacy as predictors of constructive deviance behaviors and to test the mediating role of psychological empowerment between the antecedents and constructive deviance behaviors. Data was collected using questionnaire adopted from previous studies to measure the relationships between the variables. Data was collected from 561 managerial and non-managerial employees of organizations related to informatics sector of Pakistan. Results of the study showed that self-esteem, extraversion, risk-taking propensity, generalized self-efficacy and proactive personality were significantly related to constructive deviance behaviors. Psychological empowerment mediated between the relationships of self-esteem and extraversion with constructive deviance behaviors.
