Abstract

The fact that employees think of themselves as organizationally valuable and meaningful shows that they have organizational-based self-esteem. In this way, a sense of belonging to the workplace can develop and employees can reveal a sense of psychological ownership. Individuals try to legally or psychologically acquire certain items of a different nature that are important to them. Ownership is seen as a way to increase self-esteem. In this study, it is aimed to investigate the effect of organization-based self-esteem on psychological ownership. Quantitative research method was preferred in order to carry out the research. The universe of the research consists of municipal employees. Data were collected from 278 employees determined according to the simple random sampling technique. Organization-based self-esteem scale developed by Pierce (1989) and psychological ownership scale developed by Van Dyne and Pierce (2004) were used as data collection tools. The relationships between the variables were analyzed with the structural equation model. The data obtained from the research findings show that organization-based self-esteem has a positive and significant effect on psychological ownership. The results of the research support the findings in the literature.

Abstract

Çalışanların örgütsel açıdan değerli ve anlamlı olduklarını düşünmeleri örgüt temelli öz saygılarının olduğunu göstermektedir. Bu sayede işyerine karşı aidiyet duygusu gelişebilir ve çalışanlarda psikolojik olarak sahiplik hissi ortaya çıkabilir. Bireyler kendileri için önemli olan farklı nitelikteki belirli öğelere yasal veya psikolojik olarak sahip olmaya çalışmaktadır. Sahiplik, öz saygıyı artırmanın bir yolu olarak görülmektedir. Bu çalışmada, örgüt temelli öz saygının psikolojik sahiplenme üzerindeki etkisinin araştırılması amaçlanmaktadır. Araştırmanın yapılabilmesi için nicel araştırma yöntemi tercih edilmiştir. Araştırmanın evreni belediye çalışanlarından oluşmaktadır. Basit tesadüfi örnekleme tekniğine göre belirlenen 278 çalışandan veriler toplanmıştır. Veri toplama aracı olarak Pierce (1989) tarafından geliştirilen örgüt temelli öz saygı ölçeği ve Van Dyne ve Pierce (2004) tarafından geliştirilen psikolojik sahiplenme ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Değişkenler arasındaki ilişkiler yapısal eşitlik modeli ile analiz edilmiştir. Araştırma bulgularından elde edilen veriler örgüt temelli öz saygının psikolojik sahiplenme üzerinde pozitif ve anlamlı yönde etkisinin olduğunu göstermektedir. Araştırma sonucu literatürdeki bulguları destekler niteliktedir.
