Increasingly, mental health and medical professionals have been asked to assess claims of psychological harm arising from harassment at the workplace, or "mobbing." This study assessed the personality and psychopathological profiles of 146 individuals exposed to mobbing using validity, clinical, and content scales of the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory 2. Profiles and factor analyses were obtained. Two major dimensions emerged among those exposed to mobbing: (a) depressed mood, difficulty in making decisions, change-related anguish, and passive-aggressive traits (b) somatic symptoms, and need for attention and affection. This cross-sectional pilot study provides evidence that personality profiles of mobbing victims and psychological damage resulting from mobbing may be evaluated using standardized assessments, though a longitudinal study is needed to delineate cause-and-effect relationships.
心理健康和医学专业人员越来越多地被要求评估因职场骚扰或“群体迫害”而产生的心理伤害索赔。本研究使用明尼苏达多相人格调查表2的效度、临床和内容量表，评估了146名遭受群体迫害者的人格和心理病理学特征。获得了特征分析和因子分析结果。在遭受群体迫害者中出现了两个主要维度：(a)情绪低落、决策困难、与变化相关的痛苦以及被动攻击型特质；(b)躯体症状以及对关注和关爱的需求。这项横断面试点研究提供了证据，表明可以使用标准化评估来评估群体迫害受害者的人格特征以及群体迫害造成的心理损害，不过需要进行纵向研究来阐明因果关系。
