Bu çalışma, sağlık çalışanları üzerinde psikolojik yıldırma (mobing) ile çalışan motivasyonu arasındaki ilişkiyi ortaya koymak amacıyla kamu sektöründe faaliyet gösteren bir işbirliği yapılan (afiliye) hastanede gerçekleştirilen kesitsel bir alan araştırmasıdır. Araştırmanın evrenini 1076 çalışan oluşturmuş olup araştırma 222 hastane çalışanı üzerinde uygulanmıştır. Araştırmadan elde edilen veriler SPSS 22.0 programı ile analiz edilerek yorumlanmıştır. Katılımcıların büyük çoğunluğu 45 yaşının altında ve kadındır. Çalışmanın sonucuna göre hastanedeki sağlık hizmetlerinin kadın ağırlıklı sağlık meslek mensupları tarafından verildiğini göstermektedir. Aynı zamanda katılımcıların yaklaşık 1/3’ü bekârdır. Araştırmaya katılan çalışanların %90,1’inin daha önce yöneticilik deneyimi yoktur. Eğitim durumuna bakıldığında en yüksek oranı lisans grubu oluşturmaktadır. Katılımcıların yaklaşık 1/3’ünü hemşire/ebeler oluşturmaktadır. Katılımcıların yarısına yakını gündüz; büyük çoğunluğu 40 saat üstü çalışmakta; büyük çoğunluğu 10 yılın altında görev yapmaktadır. Katılımcıların 2/3’ünün kadrosu Sağlık Bakanlığına bağlıdır. Korelasyon analizi sonucunda psikolojik yıldırma ile motivasyon araçları arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir ilişki bulunmamıştır (p>0,05). Regresyon analizine göre psikolojik yıldırma motivasyon araçlarını etkilemektedir ((F=3,954, R²=0,018; F=9,351, R²=0,041).
