This table provides the results for discriminant validity criteria of cross loading and Heterotrait-Monotrait Ratio (HTMT). Here, CC, PB, Pers, and WB refer to a caring climate, personal bullying, personality, and workplace bullying, respectively. PTSD shows post-traumatic stress disorder. The bold values show a strong correlation with the same construct and weak correlation with different construct indicating discriminant validity.
