based on 254 nurses. Statistical analysis was performed through SPSS (v- 26) software. Constructs reliability and validity were analyzed through Cronbach’s alpha value which was above 0.90. The results confirmed that
workplace bullying has a significant positive influence on workplace deviance and workplace deviance has significant negative influence on patient’s quality-of-care.
