Gardner, D., Bentley, T. A., Catley, B. E., Cooper-Thomas, H., et al. (2013). New Zealand Journal of Psychology, 42(2), 84-91. 1,733 respondents from four sectors (health, education, hospitality and travel) responded to a self-report questionnaire. Despite reporting higher levels of bullying than New Zealand Europeans, Pacific Island and Asian/Indian respondents reported lower levels of psychological strain. Respondents with more supportive supervisors and colleagues reported experiencing less bullying and less strain. Bullying was related to negative outcomes for all groups.
