İş Arkadaşlarının Sosyal Kaytarmasının, Bireyin İş Tatmini, Örgütsel Bağlılık ve Kendi Kaytarma Davranışlarına Etkisi

Sosyal kaytarma, takım çalışmalarının arttığı günümüzde, takımın verimliliğini etkileyen önemli değişkenlerden biridir. Bu çalışmada iş arkadaşlarının sosyal kaytarmasının, bireyin iş tatminine, örgütsel bağlılığına ve bireyin kendi sosyal kaytarmasına etkisi araştırılmıştır. Veriler, teknik bir lisede görev yapan 175 öğretmenden anket yoluyla toplanmıştır. Değişkenler arasındaki ilişkiler korelasyon ve hiyerarşik regresyon analiziyle incelenmiştir. Araştırma bulguları, iş arkadaşlarının sosyal kaytarmasının bireyin iş tatminine ve örgütsel bağlılığına negatif yönde anlamlı bir etki; kendi sosyal kaytarma davranışına da pozitif yönde anlamlı bir etki yaptığını göstermektedir. Ayrıca, iş tatmini ve örgütsel bağlılık bireyin sosyal kaytarma davranışına negatif yönlü anlamlı bir etki yaparken; iş arkadaşlarının sosyal kaytarma davranışının bireyin kendi sosyal kaytarma davranışlına etkisinde kısmi aracı rol oynamaktadır.

The Effect of Coworkers’ Social Loafing on Indıvıdual’s Job Satisfactıon, Organizational Commitment and his own Social Loafing

As the studies on team work increases, social loafing has become one of the most important variable that effect teams productivity. In this study, the effect of coworkers’ social loafing on individual’s job satisfaction, organizational commitment and his own social loafing was examined. Data were collected from 175 teachers from technical high school. To identify the relationships among the study variables, correlation and regression analysis were conducted. The findings of the study showed that coworkers’ social loafing had a significant negative effect on both individual’s job satisfaction and organizational commitment and had a significant positive effect on his or her own social loafing. Furthermore, job satisfaction and organizational commitment had a significant negative effect on his or her own social loafing and partially mediated the relationship between coworkers’ social loafing and his or her own social loafing.
