Surprisingly few studies have so far been made at workplace bullying in Taiwan. The main purposes of this research are as follows： （1） to examine the validity and reliability of NAQR-22 in Taiwan; （2） to find out the relationship between workplace bullying and job stress; and （3） to provide further research suggestions for workplace bullying in Taiwan. Researchers use quantitative paradigm and adopt NAQR-22 and Job Stress Scale （JSS） as the survey tools. After translate the NAQR-22 and JSS into traditional Chinese, researchers conduct the pre-test and revise the questionnaire. After the formal survey, results are as below： （1） The reliability of revised NAQR-22 is high and the validity of revised NAQR-22 is fair; （2） The workplace bullying and job stress have close relationship, workplace bullying influences job stress obviously; and （3） We suggest the further researchers to carry on deep qualitative researches for the content and definition, which could make cross culture comparison and define Taiwan＇s own definition of workplace bullying. Furthermore, they should develop the localized workplace bullying questionnaire to survey the workplace bullying status quo.展开更多
