Abstract
Background and Purpose: Microaggressions that are not intended to cause deliberate harm to the target are frequently encountered in health communications. Individuals who are the targets of microaggressions may develop emotional and behavioral responses as coping strategies. This study seeks to provide needed clarity on the relationship between microaggression, gossip, and revenge. Methods: A quantitative method was used to collect data. Nurses working in public hospitals in Turkey participated in this study and provided valuable data for the final analysis and the acquisition of conclusion. Results: The findings indicated that the increasing effect of gender microaggressions on organizational gossip occurred both directly and indirectly through vengeful feelings. Moreover, the indirect impact of gender microaggression through revenge was moderated by gender. Implication for Practice: Given the subtle and ambiguous nature of microaggression, this study develops the implications of gender microaggression within emotional and behavioral constructs and has explanatory contributions through the development of direct and indirect relationships.
