The methods of data analysis included descriptive statistics, t test, one-way ANOVA, correlation analysis, and multi regression analysis, after which conclusions and suggestions were provided. The results indicated the following: 1. Significant differences regarding workplace bullying existed among cabin crew with various ages, marital status, years of experience, and average flight hours. 2.
