Summary/Abstract: Since the 1990s, research has been conducted to identify the causes of entering into violent relationships at work. The correlates of intra-organisational aggression, bullying, psychological and sexual harassment at work are being studied. In doing so, the attention of researchers focuses primarily on the organisational and social factors that may favour the occurrence of these phenomena. In recent years, however, increasing attention has been paid to individual differences that may predispose employees to become embroiled in violence at work. The article presents considerations on the role of beliefs and patterns in the development of mobbing in the above-mentioned context.
