摘要

Purpose - Using the stressor-strain model and media richness theory, this study seeks to investigate the relationship between receiving a harassing message via computer-mediated communication and psychological health. Design/methodology/approach - A sample of 492 individuals completed an online questionnaire. Three media characteristics are examined as potential moderators: media richness, anonymity of the harasser, and location where the victim received the harassing message. Findings - The results suggest that virtual harassment is associated with diminished psychological health (both directly and mediated by fear of future harassment), and each media characteristic plays a role in understanding the level of fear of future harassment. Anonymity and location moderate the mediator's (fear) role in the stressor-strain model. Research limitations/implications - This research addresses the need for explicit testing of the differentiating factors of various forms of workplace aggression as moderators. Specifically, media characteristics are relevant in the psychological experience of virtual harassment. Practical implications - Virtual harassment appears to occur more frequently than face-to-face harassment, and often the two forms co-occur. Implications for EAP counselors, computer usage and harassment policies are discussed. Originality/value - This study is the first to examine how media richness, anonymity and location of harassing message impacts the individual outcomes of workplace non-sexual virtual harassment. The results indicate that, while related to face-to-face harassment, virtual harassment appears to have more nuanced considerations for both practitioners and researchers.
