To determine the extent of Turkish junior male physicians' exposure to mobbing behavior and its correlation with physicians' characteristics.
The study included physicians recruited for compulsory military service in April 2009. No sampling method was used, questionnaires were delivered to all physicians, and 278 of 292 (95%) questionnaires were returned. We used Leymann Inventory of Psychological Terror including 45 items for data collection and structural equation model for data analysis.
A total of 87.7% of physicians experienced mobbing behavior. Physicians who worked more than 40 hours a week, single physicians, physicians working in university hospitals and private hospitals, and physicians who did not have occupational commitment were more exposed to mobbing (P<0.05). Mobbing was not associated with specialty status, service period, age, and personality variables (P>0.05). All goodness-of- fit indices of the model were acceptable (χ(2)=1.449, normed fit index=0.955, Tucker Lewis index=0.980, comparative fit index=0.985, and root mean square error of approximation=0.040).
Workplace mobbing is a critical problem for junior male physicians in Turkey. We suggest an introduction of a reporting system and education activities for physicians in high-risk groups.
确定土耳其年轻男性医生遭受职场暴力行为的程度及其与医生特征的相关性。
该研究纳入了2009年4月被征召服义务兵役的医生。未采用抽样方法，问卷发放给了所有医生，292份问卷中有278份（95%）被收回。我们使用包含45个条目的莱曼心理恐惧量表进行数据收集，并采用结构方程模型进行数据分析。
共有87.7%的医生经历过职场暴力行为。每周工作超过40小时的医生、单身医生、在大学医院和私立医院工作的医生以及没有职业承诺的医生更容易遭受职场暴力（P<0.05）。职场暴力与专业地位、服务年限、年龄和个性变量无关（P>0.05）。模型的所有拟合优度指标均可接受（χ(2)=1.449，规范拟合指数=0.955，塔克·刘易斯指数=0.980，比较拟合指数=0.985，近似均方根误差=0.040）。
职场暴力是土耳其年轻男性医生面临的一个关键问题。我们建议为高危群体的医生引入报告系统和开展教育活动。
