characteristics, in a multi-occupational sample of 2861 workers from diverse employment sectors. For this purpose, a
specific mobbing instrument, the Negative Acts Questionnaire - Revised (NAQ-R) and a questionnaire drawn up ad hoc
about relevant socio-demographic and work aspects were employed. The results of this study provide psychometric support
for the use of the Spanish version of the NAQ-R as a reliable and valid instrument for assessing different levels of workplace

national and international levels.Read More
