Esnek Çalışma Ortamındaki Çalışanlarda Öz Kontrol ve Öz Yönetim, İçsel Motivasyon ve Mutluluk İlişkisine Dair Bir Araştırma

Bu araştırmanın amacı; çalışanların öz kontrol ve öz yönetim algıları, iş hayatındaki içsel motivasyonları ve mutluluk düzeyleri arasındaki ilişkiyi ve etkileşimi ortaya koymaktır. Özellikle çalışanların öz kontrol ve öz yönetim algılarının içsel motivasyon aracılığıyla çalışanların mutluluğunu etkileyip etkilemediği ortaya konulmaya çalışılmaktadır. Buradan hareketle amaçlı örneklem yöntemi ve anket tekniği kullanılarak 221 katılımcıdan veri toplanmıştır. Örneklem kitlesi ise İstanbul ilinde, bilişim sektöründe esnek çalışma sistemine göre faaliyet gösteren işletmelerdeki çalışanlardan oluşmaktadır. Analiz sonuçlarına göre öz kontrol ve öz yönetimin hem içsel motivasyonu hem de mutluluğu anlamlı ve pozitif şekilde etkilediği ortaya çıkmıştır. Bunun yanında içsel motivasyonun da mutluluğu anlamlı yordadığı tespit edilmiştir. Araştırmanın en önemli sonucu ise, öz kontrol ve öz yönetimin mutluluk ile ilişkisinde, içsel motivasyonun tam aracılık rolüne sahip olduğudur. Sonuç olarak, kişinin öz kontrol ve öz yönetim düzeyinin yükselmesi, çalışanların içsel enerjiyle çalışmasını sağlamaktadır. Bu durumun aynı zamanda çalışanların mutluluğuna da yansıdığı görülmektedir.

A Research on Relationship between Self Control and Self-Management, Intrinsic Motivation and Happiness in Flexible Working Employees

The aim of the study is to reveal the relationship and interaction between employees' self-control, self-management perceptions, their intrinsic motivations and happiness levels. In particular, it is tried to determine whether employees' self-control and self-management perceptions affect their happiness through intrinsic motivation. Based on this, data is collected from 221 participants using snowball sampling method and survey technique. The sample consists of the employees in the enterprises operating in the IT sector according to the flexible working system in the province of Istanbul. According to the results of the analysis, self-control and self-management affect both intrinsic motivation and happiness significantly and positively. In addition, it is determined that intrinsic motivation predicts happiness significantly. The most important result of the research is the finding of the mediating effect of intrinsic motivation in the relationship of self-control and self-management with happiness. As a result, increasing the level of self-control and self-management of people enables employees to work with internal energy. This situation is also seen to be reflected in the happiness of people.
