Summary/Abstract: In this study, the mediating role of job stress in the effect of abusive managerial behavior on mental and physical health problems was investigated. Our research, on which the Conservation of Resources Theory (COR) is based, has been evaluated in the light of the findings obtained from 401 law enforcement personnel working in 56 provinces of Turkey where the power distance between subordinates and superiors is high. In the findings of our study, it was found that abusive behaviors by superiors had a mediating effect between subordinates' job stress and physical and mental health problems. In this direction, our study contributes to the literature on the health problems caused by continuous exposure to abusive behavior in employees.
