| Abstract: |
The article reports on the persistence of workplace bullying and incivility in nursing, highlighting how these behaviors are normalized within the profession due to entrenched power structures and hierarchical norms. It traces the historical evolution of these issues, from early terms like "horizontal violence" and "vertical violence" to contemporary discussions on cyberbullying and gaslighting. The text emphasizes that addressing these behaviors requires systemic change, including ethical leadership and accountability, rather than focusing solely on individual interactions.
