abstract="PURPOSE This paper aims to examine how newcomers' experience and perception of their exposure to the hazing ritual &quot;quizzing&quot; affects their mode of relating to the workgroup. <br><br>DESIGN/METHODOLOGY/APPROACH Two illustrative cases are selected from a constructivist grounded theory study based on 15 semi-structured interviews with nursing students in clinical internships at somatic hospital wards. <br><br>FINDINGS As newcomers to the nursing profession, nursing students are exposed to experienced insiders' hazing ritual &quot;quizzing&quot; during their internship at Danish hospitals. &quot;Quizzing&quot; is a public ceremony performed by an experienced insider, e.g. a daily or clinical supervisor. The ritual continues until a bystander intervenes even though the newcomer admits not knowing the answers. &quot;Quizzing&quot; is being met with repulsion and represents a deviation from expectations of social inclusion, civilized behavior and hope of resonance. It leaves newcomers feeling alienated and makes them adopting a repulsive mode of relating to the workgroup. <br><br>ORIGINALITY/VALUE This paper applies Hartmut Rosa's resonance theory and theories of workplace hazing to explore how workgroup hazing affects newcomers' mode of relating to workgroups.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
