Prove the existence of "# queen-bee syndrome" among # women
Scientists say they have found evidence that the phenomenon known to women working in offices around the world as "queen bee syndrome" already exists.
A study by scientists at the University of Arizona confirms that women are more likely to "hate" each other than their male counterparts. The study found that female employees, who want to hold high positions at work, tended to target other women, who dominated job positions.
The scientists studied the most disturbing of women in the workplace, with full-time men and women answering questions about the "endurance" they suffered at work.
They found that women always targeted others, destroying traditional stereotypes, while men were more polite with others.
"We wanted to know who targeted women directly and terribly," said Alison Gabriel, assistant professor of administration and administration at the university. "We found firm evidence of women registering higher levels of tolerance toward other women than men."
The "Queen of the Bees" syndrome originated from the psychological studies conducted in 1973, where women are described in the position of authority as seeing or treating colleagues and subordinates firmly and humiliatingly, if they were female, according to psychologist Audrey Nelson.
The full results of the study were published in the Journal of Applied Psychology.
