TI  - THE “CRABS IN A BUCKET” MENTALITY IN
HEALTHCARE PERSONNEL: A
PHENOMENOLOGICAL STUDY
AB  - The crab mentality is expressed as a kind of selfish and narrow-minded way of thinking. The
study aimed to determine whether crab mentality affects dissatisfaction, absenteeism, and
motivation. The study was carried out with emergency service personnel of a public hospital in
Samsun, Turkey between 21.01.2019 and 16.03.2019. It is the essence of the method that
individuals tell their experiences about a phenomenon or concept. This method was preferred since
an experienced event was investigated. Data were collected through detailed interviews with people
who had experienced the relevant phenomenon. According to participants, egocentrism, jealousy,
and inequity were determined to be the antecedents of this behavior. The existence of thought in
organizations can affect a peaceful working environment, teamwork, and productivity. It can also
significantly increase the stress of the employees at work.
