Ana,
In addition to suggestions you may receive about specific types of manipulations, the following article offers best-practice recommendations on how to design and implement vignette studies including such issues as type of research design, degree of realism and level of immersion, specifying the number and levels of the manipulated factors, trade-offs between internal and external validity, reporting results, and others:
· Aguinis, H., & Bradley, K. J. 2014. Best-practice recommendations for designing and implementing experimental vignette methodology studies. Organizational Research Methods, 17: 351-371. [available at http://mypage.iu.edu/~haguinis/pubs.html]
I hope this helps!
All the best,
--Herman.

Subject: [OB-LIST] Scenario experiment - OCB/CWB
Dear OB members,
I hope all is well.
I'm designing a scenario experiment in which I'd like to manipulate a leadership style and measure organisational citizenship behaviour and counterproductive work behaviour/deviant behaviour. I've identified few papers that use scenarios to measure similar constructs.
If you could recommend any papers that measure OCB/CWB in a scenario, I'd appreciate it very much.
Thank you for your time and help.
Kind regards,
Ana
