- Abstract
A descriptive study of mobbing among university staff is presented. A sample of 548 subjects was drawn for the study, consisting of teachers and administrative and service personnel. Results show that 9.31 percent of university employees perceive themselves as victims of mobbing. The event is more usual in women than men although it takes place evenly among all professional groups --teachers, administrative and service personnel. The frequency of mobbing behaviour types depends on the gender and on the professional group. Among the victim causal attributions, there are power quarrels, envy, mobber's arrogance and competitiveness. Finally, the effects of mobbing on health, emotional well-being, performance and social relationships are discussed.
