ACOSO PSICOLÓGICO (MOBBING) EN EL ÁMBITO EDUCATIVO

Abstract

The present study tries to carry out a measurement of the mobbing level in a sample of nursery-primary education and high school teachers and it tries to describe the more frequent mobbing behaviours between these 220 teachers (93 male and 127 female) of the province of Cordoba. The relations between sex, educational level, contractual situation, locality of work, age, seniority and mobbing and the more frequent mobbing behaviours are also described. The results show that every subject undergoes an average of more than four mobbing behaviours of the sixty described by the instrument and that two thirds of the sample have indicated some of those behaviours. On the ather hand, none of the contemplated demographic variables result to be determining factors with respect to the mobbing level. Regarding the mobbing behaviours, communication and personal reputatian are the more indicated kind of behaviours. Factorial analysis describes two principal factors, refered to reputation isolation the first and aggressiveness-work the second one. Finally, similarity between these factors and Leymann's factors is discussed.
