The Qualitative Report
Bystander action has been proposed as a promising intervention to tackle workplace bullying, however there is a lack of in-depth qualitative research on the direct experiences of bystanders.

The PPACA postulates as the only way to achieve cost savings while increasing quality and access. Never before has there been such an extensive change to …
