Extending Bystander Intervention Prevention Models from College Campuses to the Workplace

ABOUT

“The Extending Bystander Intervention Prevention Models from College Campuses to the Workplace” project was initiated in the January 1 to June 30, 2022 project cycle. The specific aims of this project are: (1) Develop and pilot a new measurement tool that can be used to assess bystander intervention in the context of workplaces. The tool will adapt validated tools used on college campuses to the context of workplaces, taking into account unique factors such as power dynamics; (2) Within a workplace sample, assess what types of harassment employees witness in their workplaces, whether they take bystander action, and what barriers are present; and (3) Disseminate findings through a paper that includes discussion about what aspects of bystander intervention measurement and educational models may need to be adapted for workplaces.

Qualtrics Panel Service began data collection in June 2022 and it was completed in July 2022. Data analysis is now in progress.
