abstract="PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to build and test a model outlining the factors related to workplace bullying among nurses. The hypothesized model included authentic leadership and a relationship-oriented organizational culture as influencing factors, symptom experience and turnover intention as consequences, and positive psychological capital as a mediator of workplace bullying among nurses. <br><br>METHODS: We obtained structured questionnaire data from 301 nurses working at hospitals in South Korea. Based on these data, the developed model was verified via a structural equation modeling analysis using SPSS and AMOS program. <br><br>RESULTS: The fit indices of the hypothesized model satisfied recommended levels; χ RESULTS: = 397.58 (p<.001), normed χ RESULTS: (χ RESULTS: /df) = 1.82, RMR =.05, TLI =.93, CFI =.94, RMSEA =.05. A relationship-oriented organizational culture had a direct effect on workplace bullying (β = -.48, p<.001). Furthermore, workplace bullying had a direct effect on symptom experience (β =.36, p<.001) and this relationship was mediated by positive psychological capital (β =.15, p=.003). Workplace bullying also had an indirect effect on turnover intention (β =.20, p =.007). Finally, symptom experience had a direct effect on turnover intention (β =.31, p =.002). <br><br>CONCLUSION: These results suggest that workplace bullying among nurses may be prevented by constructing a relationship-oriented organizational culture, so long as employees have sufficient positive psychological capital. In this regard, workplace bullying among nurses should be addressed using a comprehensive strategy that considers both individual and organizational factors.<br><br>Copyright © 2018.
