232	Bullying: Out Of The School Halls And Into The Workplace Cooney, Lucretia 01 January 2010 (has links) The primary purpose of this study is to identify those people at most risk of being bullied at work. While much research is being conducted on school bullying, little has been conducted on workplace bullying. Using data gathered from a 2004 study conducted by the National Opinion Research Center for the General Social Survey, which included a Quality of Work Life (QWL) module for the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), linear regressions indicated significant findings. As predicted, workers in lower level occupations, as ranked by prestige scoring developed at National Opinion Research, are more likely to be victimized. Data also suggest that being young, Black, and relatively uneducated may contribute to being bullied in certain situations. Future research is needed to examine influences of socio-economic, legal, and other demographic factors that may predict the chance of being bullied. psychological abuse mobbing verbal abuse workplace bullying workplace harassment workplace mistreatment workplace aggression psychological violence employee employee emotional abuse emotional emotional abuse bullying job workplace bully occupational mobbing incivility interpersonal conflict harassment psychological violence employee abuse psychological service service positions women black non-white narcissists work boss bosses managers target age IPV interpersonal violence younger females marital status divorced single married occupation positional power relational power Marx Marxist social social conflict education health minority education region attendance church religious professional educational NIOSH prestige put down act upset upset shout personal space space sociology policy victim business academia co-worker humiliation intimidation slander social isolation isolation perpetrator stress discriminatory discrimination hospital court harassment Sociology
