Book synopsis

The present doctoral dissertation investigates the prevalence and consequences of different forms of physical and psychological aggression. The dissertation addresses the prevalence and long-term health-effects of nasty teasing and violence and/or threats of violence and short-term health-effects of bullying at work including physiological stress response in victims. It was also an aim to study whether aspects of the work environment, social climate and personal dispositions would mediate potential relationships between exposure to bullying, nasty teasing or violence and different health effects and stress reactions. The results show that a substantial number of employees reports exposure to the different forms of aggression that may have serious short- and long-term impact on their health and well-being as well as a strong risk of recurrent exposure. The three types of aggression at work seem to have much in common with regard to social climate at work, personal dispositions, the tendency of repeated exposure and the serious consequences on the victims health and well being.
