Highlights
In recent years, mobbing and burnout issues have gained a lot of attention in the health literature
In order to contribute to the clarification of this limited subject, this study focused on undergraduate students, and in this context, it was aimed to examine the effect of instructor-induced mobbing behavior on student burnout
Mobbing and burnout variables were compared by gender, and as a result, a significant difference was found only in the mobbing variable
Summary
In recent years, mobbing and burnout issues have gained a lot of attention in the health literature The reason for this is that both cases create serious health problems on individuals and cause negative effects such as low productivity. Leymann classified 45 different mobbing behaviors in five groups according to their characteristics These behaviors are grouped under the following headings: an attack on the dignity of the person, attacks on performance, attacks on communication, attacks on social conditions, and threat of physical attack. In this context, Leymann expressed mobbing as “hostile or immoral behaviors that one or more people generally systematically target to one person”. The results of the study showed that both academic mobbing and non-academic mobbing significantly and positively affect students’ burnout
