This dissertation sought to investigate the structuration of (non)deceptive workplace communication. Anthony Giddens' (1984) structuration theory was utilized as a framework to guide an exploratory field study examining how working individuals (n = 527) account symbolically for (non)deceptive workplace communication practices. Over four thousand (n = 4092) accounts of (non)deceptive workplace communication were identified. This resulted in forty-three (n = 43) themes of (non)deceptive workplace communication. Findings from the research have ontological implications for the study of organizational communication, the study of interpersonal deception, and the study of workplace communication.
