The present study extended the empirical research on bullying from schools, work and prison settings into nursing homes. This study is based on a theoretical foundation that understands bullying as aggressive behavior that is repeated over time and involves an inequity of power, and that psychological consequences from bullying adversely impact the victim's capacity to adaptively cope with stress and with stressful situations. Further, the literature reflected that nursing home residents' may be exposed to bullying. The purpose of the study was to identify the prevalence of resident-to-resident bullying and to investigate the psychological consequences of bullying in nursing homes. Descriptive analysis was used to assess prevalence of bullying based on responses from 156 cognitively intact nursing home residents over the age of 60 using the Negative Acts Questionnaire (NAQ). ANOVA was used to identify the relationship between bullying, using the NAQ, and adverse psychological health consequences, using the General Health Questionnaire. Nearly 50% of the residents reported at least some bullying ("bullied - now and then"). The group reporting being bullied reported significantly higher scores on negative psychological health consequences. The results from this study lay a foundation for future research on bullying in nursing homes and the development of programs that increase awareness, provide tools for victims, and enhance the training and education. The implications for social change include the recognition of the impact of bullying in nursing homes, and social policy change will result in the implementation of programs that will result in a bully-free nursing home culture.
