Abstract

Author(s): Özlem IŞIK

The concept of mobbing, introduced into the literature by Leymann (1990), is a type of psychological harassment that the employee experiences due to many factors and has various dimensions. Mobbing can negatively affect the work performance of the employee, the sense of belonging to the job and the life of the person. The interest in mobbing in the literature continues with an increasing interest every day for the last 30 years; studies examine different facets of the concept in different dimensions and different segments of workers. Turkish literature also includes extensive and comprehensive studies on mobbing. This study has set out the purpose of making the descriptive analysis of mobbing literature between the years of 2010-2020 in Turkey. For this purpose, the articles written by the researchers and evaluating the concept of mobbing from different perspectives were scanned in TR Index, SCI, SSCI indexes. The obtained articles were subjected to content analysis in the context of the determined themes, and a descriptive analysis of the mobbing literature was attempted. The main recommendation for subsequent studies is that similar studies should be analyzed comparatively with theses prepared at master's and doctoral levels and with studies conducted abroad.
