摘要:The aim of this paper is to analyze the prevalence of mobbing in the workplace, as well as its main associated
characteristics, in a multi-occupational sample of 2861 workers from diverse employment sectors. For this purpose, a
specific mobbing instrument, the “Negative Acts Questionnaire – Revised” (NAQ-R) and a questionnaire drawn up ad hoc
about relevant socio-demographic and work aspects were employed. The results of this study provide psychometric support
for the use of the Spanish version of the NAQ-R as a reliable and valid instrument for assessing different levels of workplace
bullying. The results also indicate that 14% of the participants had experienced mobbing behaviors during the previous six
months. Likewise, the mobbing characteristics found were, in general, similar to those found in diverse studies, both at
national and international levels
