Journal Title: International Journal of Academic Research in Accounting, Finance and Management Sciences - Year 2011, Vol 1, Issue 2
Abstract
The aim of this study is to determine the level of impact of mobbing academics are subjected to, on organizational commitment. It was attempted to implement the research on academics working in the public and private universities in Turkey. As it is impossible to reach all target population, random sample selection method was used and the database of 408 randomly selected academics` was formulated. In order to determine the level of mobbing, mobbing scale, developed by Heinz Leymann (1993); and in order to determine the level of organizational justice, organizational commitment scale, which is classified as affective, normative and continuance commitment, developed by Meyer and Allen (1991) has been used. According to the results, while there exists a significant relationship between mobbing and emotional and normative commitment, we found no evidence in favour of a relationship between commitment and continuity.
