Sin su perseverancia a la hora de insuflarme ánimos no habría sido posible. Mis dudas y mis flaquezas durante este tiempo siempre encontraron la respuesta adecuada de su parte. Especialmente Alberto, que siempre confió (incluso más que yo) que esto llegaría a buen puerto. Gracias al Fondo de Investigaciones Sanitarias (FIS) por la financiación parcial del proyecto del cual surgió la base de datos que hemos utilizado en nuestro estudio y sin la cual nada hubiese sido posible. Igualmente al Departamento de Medicina y Salud Pública de la Universidad de Murcia, marco en el cual se desarrolló dicho proyecto. Gracias también a Elena, inestimable amiga, cuya experiencia en transitar por un lugar parecido me sirvió de gran ayuda. A mis amigos Joaquín, Marta, Enrique y Mónica por los buenos momentos que pasamos juntos y que me permitieron tomar aire cuando más lo necesitaba. ¡Vaya cenas inolvidables! Por último, y muy especialmente, quería agradecer este trabajo a mi familia que supo perdonar mis ausencias. Sobre todo a Valentina, mi esposa, que soportó mis fluctuaciones de ánimo con gran amor y comprensión. 4 ÍNDICE GENERAL ÍNDICE GENERAL 5 ÍNDICE DE TABLAS Y FIGURAS 8 INTRODUCCIÓN 13 JUSTIFICACIÓN DEL ESTUDIO 16 PRIMERA PARTE MARCO TEÓRICO 23 1.

  • Mobbing in the Context of a Woman's Life
    #24 2014 ISSN 1715-0094 Morrison Kenney, R. (2014). Mobbing in the Context of a Woman’s Life. Workplace, 24, 42-51. RACHEL MORRISON KENNEY MOBBING IN THE CONTEXT OF A WOMAN’S LIFE1 Trauma in Middle Age My conversations with Gertraud took place in 2009, in the peaceful, refined, so very civilized setting of her apartment in one of the tonier high-rise condos in Waterloo, Ontario. I had just moved into an apartment of my own, where I could scarcely see the floor for all the cardboard boxes still unpacked. This impeccably ordered display of European taste was in sharpest contrast to the half-assembled furnishings from big-box stores strewn about my dwelling. Nothing here hinted at the pain and loss that had marked this ninety-year-old woman’s life, much less the nadir in 1976, that I had come to talk to her about. Nor did her personal appearance. Petite, gracious, with honey-coloured hair and the kind of eyes that smile on their own, she wore a blouse with nary a wrinkle, and over it a delicate brooch. She was a picture of what used to be called “good breeding.” That first day, and all the other times we met, Gertraud carried herself with grace and no inkling of self- pity. Her manners, so I was to learn, were a clue to her deep appreciation for the preciousness of life. In counterpoint to the staggering sorrows she had known were even greater joys, moments when she witnessed the power of compassion in the midst of strife.

  • What Is Mobbing? Budget Cuts Are Not the Only Way Workers Are Forced from Jobs: Workplace Abuse
    What is Mobbing? Budget Cuts Are Not the Only Way Workers Are Forced from Jobs: Workplace Abuse “The mobbing syndrome is a malicious attempt to force a person out of the workplace through unjustified accusations, humiliation, general harassment, emotional abuse, and/or terror. “It is a ‘ganging up’ by the leader(s) - organization, superior, co-worker, or subordinate - who rallies others into systematic and frequent ‘mob-like’ behavior. “Because the organization ignores, condones, or even instigates the behavior, it can be said that the victim, seemingly helpless against the powerful and many, is indeed ‘mobbed.’ The result is always injury - physical or mental distress or illness and social misery and, most often, expulsion from the workplace.” -Mobbing: Emotional Abuse in the American Workplace, by Davenport, Schwartz, and Elliott, 1999. When a budget crisis hits a large institution, certain workers often seem to be treated as though they are“expendable,” and are often the first forced out. But this is not the only manner in which workers are driven out of the workplace. Mobbing has been recognized for many years in Europe, and it is also beginning to be identified as a serious workplace problem in the United States. The authors above go on to say, “Mobbing is an emotional assault. Through innuendo, rumors, and public discrediting, a hostile environment is created in which one individual gathers others to willingly, or unwillingly participate in continuous malevolent actions to force a person out of the workplace.” “These actions escalate into abusive and terrorizing behavior. The victim feels increasingly helpless when the organization does not put a stop to the behavior or may even plan or condone it..

  • The Weaponization of Student Evaluations of Teaching: Bullying and the Undermining of Academic Freedom Jason Rodriguez
    Back to Volume Ten Contents The Weaponization of Student Evaluations of Teaching: Bullying and the Undermining of Academic Freedom Jason Rodriguez Abstract Student evaluations of teaching (SETs) can be weaponized to justify undermining academic freedom and subjecting untenured and contingent faculty to surveillance and bullying. I use an autobiographical case study of my experience of the tenure process at a small liberal arts college to illustrate how SETs can enable these processes. SETs have the power they do, in part, because of an increasingly precarious academic job market and because SETs can be deployed to make forms of bullying appear to be based on data. Moreover, SETs are a particularly adaptable weapon because the data can be interpreted to justify a range of positions. As such, SETs can be wielded to exacerbate the asymmetrical character of the relations of power that untenured and contingent faculty experience and to counter diversification, interdisciplinarity, and other important transformations taking place in higher education. Student evaluations of teaching (SETs) can be utilized as an institutionally legitimized weapon to bully untenured and contingent faculty and compel conformity to the whims of tenured colleagues. They can also be used to stifle efforts to diversify higher education, foster interdisciplinarity, and undo long-standing hierarchies. Furthermore, in academia, pressures to conform often look like a discourse of “cooperation,” “civility,” and invoking “our” department culture and the way “we” do things. SETs facilitate the translation of such pressures into ostensibly neutral, data-based demands. Copyright American Association of University Professors, 2019 AAUP Journal of Academic Freedom 2 Volume Ten The meaning ascribed to SET data is created through the particular analysis of those data.

  • The Mobbings at Medaille College in 2002
    This chapter from Kenneth Westhues, The Remedy and Prevention of Mobbing in Higher Education (Edwin Mellen, 2006) is part of the website on workplace mobbing in academe. It was first published on the website of the New York AAUP in 2002, then in New York Academe (Vol. 30:1, Winter 2003, pp. 8-10). All rights reserved. ________________________________________________________ Chapter Two The Initial Paper, October 2002: The Mobbings at Medaille College Since mid-2001, an uncommon but severe organizational pathology has infected Medaille College, an institution serving 2,000 students in Buffalo, New York. Dozens, perhaps hundreds, of individuals at the college have been harmed. Two tenured senior professors, Therese Warden and Uhuru Watson, have all but lost their professional lives. The harm is needless, serving no purpose but to weaken the college and jeopardize its future. The purpose of this paper is to identify, analyze, and explain, on the basis of publicly available documentation, the precise social ill that has laid the college low. Section 1 summarizes organizational research conducted and disseminated in Europe over the past two decades, but as yet little known in North America. Sections 2-4 apply the research to the Medaille evidence. The trustees, alumni, administrators, faculty, staff, and students of Medaille are educated men and women with the best interests of the college at heart. Section 5 of this paper invites them all to apply this analysis critically and constructively toward restoring the college to organizational health, lest the lives of two professors be wrongly ruined, and lest a cloud of disgrace hang over the college’s future for as long as it may survive.

Bartlett Bullying and cyber-bullying (online bullying) are all too often in the news these days, particularly in schools. Being made fun of, threatened with physical violence, excluded from activities on purpose, hurtful information spread among classmates – the frequency and severity of bullying behavior has an enormous impact on children’s emotional and physical well-being. According to the National Center for Educational Statistics, one in four school children from ages 12 to 18 report being the victims of bullying or cyber-bullying.1 Less prevalent is news about bullying of adults in their places of work, but some statistics are comparable.

Anyone who has been stung by mean-spirited or demeaning behaviour at work can tell you that the wounds inflicted, while often invisible, are very real. But finding the right words to describe adequately what has happened can be a much more complicated matter. There is considerable discussion among researchers regarding what terminology best describes a phenomenon that encompasses such a wide range of inappropriate behaviours (Fox & Spector, 2005), from incivility and rudeness to violence and abuse. A pivotal point in this debate is whether to focus on the problem state (workplace bullying, harassment, intimidation, abuse, etc.) or on the desired solution state (a safe, respectful, and inclusive workplace and workplace civility and decency; e.g., Westhues, 2007a, 2007b). This tension can be kept in balance by bearing in mind that these are, in essence, two sides of the same coin. Drawing the Boundaries: Distinguishing Among Bullying, Conflict, and the Right to Manage Next, where do we draw the line? What is acceptable behaviour, and what is not? It is one thing for an organization to delineate in general terms the types of behaviours that are unacceptable, and quite another to help individuals determine at what precise point behaviour has actually crossed the oft-cited line of “what was known or ought reasonably to have been known” to be unwanted or unwelcome behaviour.

MOBBING: ¿DEBEMOS SEGUIR LLAMÁNDOLO ASÍ? LORENZ Y LEYMANN REVISITADOS Psic. Sergio Navarrete Vázquez [email protected] Mobbing, Acoso psicológico, Frank Finn, Konrad Lorenz, Peter P. Heinemann, Carroll M. Brodsky, Heinz Leymann, Ornitología, Etología, Psicología, Psicología Organizacional, Traducción, Administración de Personal RESUMEN: El presente ensayo fue motivado inicialmente por la falta de consenso respecto a la forma de traducir el término al español. La re-visita a la obra de Lorenz y Leymann condujo a reflexiones que necesariamente anteceden tal cuestión. Esto es un avance de lo que espero sea capítulo de un libro más adelante; aunque le son inherentes diversas limitantes (derivadas, por ejemplo, de los pocos materiales traducidos al español), trataré de presentar los puntos centrales. En algunos casos se ha dicho que Konrad Lorenz acuñó el concepto, en otros que fue Heinz Leymann; otras versiones indican que Lorenz utilizó el término por primera vez y que Leymann lo tomó prestado más tarde (dando su lugar a Peter Heinemann y Carroll Brodsky), etc. Sin embargo, aún faltan precisiones. Por otra parte, en apariencia, el término podía importarse de la etología a la psicología sin implicaciones, pero no es así: su significado es distinto: en Lorenz, la finalidad del “mobbing” es de de conservación, y en Leymann es causar daño. En este trabajo se realiza una reseña de la vida y obra de Lorenz y de Leymann, así como una revisión incipiente de la manera en que contextualizan y entienden el concepto de mobbing, que es justo lo que me lleva a la pregunta del título.

Thankfully, in statistical terms, this type of campus violence can be considered relatively extraordinary. In contrast, the only type of campus violence that is unfortunately common enough to be characterized as “ordinary” is peer sexual assault and similar forms of campus gender-based violence.
