Notes:
Management of work-related stress, adaptation, economic crisis and bullying risk
The purpose of this study is to examine the prevalence rate of workplace bullying in a sample of Italian and Spanish employees
and its differential consequences on employees’ job satisfaction and psychological well-being. The effects of workplace
bullying on job satisfaction and psychological well-being were explored taking into account a contextualized approach.
Cross-sectional study was adopted in which a sample of 1,151 employees in Italy and 705 in Spain completed a questionnaire.
We hypothesized that the relationship between exposure to bullying behaviors and psychological well-being is mediated
by job satisfaction, and that this simple mediation model is moderated by the country. Results suggest that no particular
differences exist in bullying prevalence among Spanish and Italian employees. However, we found scientific confirmation of
our hypothesized moderated mediation model. Nevertheless the limitations of the sample studied, findings capture contextual
differences in the bullying phenomenon which may have several implications for further research in this domain, as well as for
designing interventions to deal with workplace bullying. Although this study explores bullying in different cultural contexts
without investigating specific cultural values, it establishes the roots to evaluate workplace bullying froma contextualized perspective.
