Mobbing in the work environment
 PIXA, David
The thesis deals with the phenomenon of psychological terror in the work environment and offers a compact view of this widespread social problem. The focus of the empirical research was quantitative survey aimed to discover the approximate dispositions of bullying in Czech workplaces. Data were gathered from a non-random convenience sample (N = 306; F = 66.0%) of anonymous workers through a modified online version of the Negative Acts Questionnaire (NAQ-R). According to the self-labelling approach, 16.0% of the respondents had been (4.9% regularly; 11.1% occasionally) targets of workplace bullying during the past 6 months. The complementary behavioural method detected that 21.9% (11.4%) of the respondents had been subjected to at least one (two) of the negative acts on a weekly basis. The predominantly experienced negative acts had been work-related. The most prevalent source of workplace bullying was reported to be superiors (73.5%). There was no significant difference between males and females or the public and private sectors.
