Data on violence were collected using the Workplace Violence in the Health Sector (WPVHS) questionnaire, while career-level variables were collected from demographic data. Data analysis was performed using descriptive statistics and the chi-square test. The results showed that the career level variable was not related to physical violence, but it was related to psychological/non-physical violence, with a p-value of 0.000.
