• Description:
  There is a fairly vast literature on workplace violence and aggression; two entire books recently were published on the topic (Griffin & O'Leary-Kelly, 2004; Kelloway, Barling, & Hurrell, 2006). A gap exists, however, in the analysis of the gendered nature of such experiences. Although empirical and theoretical accounts have appeared here and there, an overview of this scattered work is due. Hence, our goal for the present chapter is to provide a summary of the research and thinking on ways in which workplace violence and aggression are gendered phenomena. [Description provided by NIOSH]
