SOSYOTROPİK-OTONOM KİŞİLİK ÖZELLİKLERİNİN BİLGİ İFŞASINA ETKİSİNDE ETİK İŞ İKLİMİ ALGISININ ROLÜ

Bu araştırmanın temel amacı sağlık çalışanlarının sosyotropik-otonom kişilik özelliklerinin bilgi ifşası üzerine etkisinde etik iş iklimi algısının aracı rolünün incelenmesidir. Araştırmanın örneklemi 320 sağlık çalışanından oluşmaktadır. Yapılan analizlerden elde edilen sonuçlara göre sosyotropik-otonom kişilik özellikleri ile bilgi ifşası arasındaki ilişkinin anlamlı olmadığı ancak sosyotropik kişilik özelliklerinin alt boyutu olan onaylanmama kaygısı ile bilgi ifşası arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir ilişki olduğu belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca etik iş iklimi algısının, sosyotropik-otonom kişilik özelliklerinin bilgi ifşası üzerindeki etkisinde aracılık rolünün olmadığı tespit edilmiştir.

THE ROLE OF ETHICAL WORK CLIMATE PERCEPTION IN THE EFFECT OF SOCIOTROPIC- AUTONOMOUS PERSONALITY CHARACTERISTICS ON WHISTLEBLOWING

The main purpose of this research is whether the perception of ethical work climate has a mediating role in the effect of sociotropic and autonomous personality characteristics of healthcare professionals on whistleblowing. The sample of the research consists of 320 health workers. According to the results obtained from the analyzes, it was determined that there was no significant relationship between sociotropic and autonomous personality traits and whistleblowing. However, some meaningful relationships wereobtained in terms of the sub- dimension of the sociotropic personality characteristic. According to these findings, it was determined that there is a significant relationship between anxiety of disapproval, which is a sub-dimension of sociotropic personality, and whistleblowing. In addition, when ethical work climate perception, which is a mediating variable, is included in the model, it was concluded that ethical work climate did not have a mediating role in the effect of sociotropic and autonomous personality traits on whistleblowing.
