Papers & Research
Academic Research
We select topics for research which concern any type of harassment and also bullying. Our research ultimately focuses on workplace effects and is concerned with adults.
We are willing to use a variety of methods - case studies, questionnaires and interviews, for example. We expect all our research to be of international standard and publishable. However we are willing to undertake confidential research which may not be published.
The threshold of international excellence means that we normally involve academics in our research and use relevant ethics processes to ensure scrutiny is undertaken because we are sometimes dealing with vulnerable persons.
