A RESEARCH ON WORK LIFE QUALITY, PSYCHOLOGICAL CONTRACT AND PSYCHOLOGICAL OWNERSHIP RELATIONSHIP IN THE CONTEXT OF SOCIAL EXCHANGE THEORY
Bu çalışmada, çalışma hayatı kalitesi ve psikolojik sahiplenme ilişkisinde psikolojik sözleşmenin aracı; sosyal mübadele hassasiyetinin düzenleyici etkisinin incelenmesi amaçlanmaktadır. Yapılan literatür taramasında, psikolojik sahiplenme üzerine yapılan çalışmaların göreceli olarak sınırlı sayıda olduğu ve ağırlıklı olarak kavramın öncüllerinden ziyade ardılları üzerine odaklanıldığı görülmüştür. Çalışma hayatı kalitesinin psikolojik sahiplenmeye etki eden önemli bir faktör olabileceği varsayımından hareketle saha araştırmasının yapılmasına karar verilmiş; özel okullarda görev yapmakta olan 218 öğretmen üzerinde anket çalışması yürütülmüştür. Çalışma hayatı kalitesi, psikolojik sözleşme ve psikolojik sahiplenme ilişkisini ele alan herhangi bir çalışmaya rastlanmamış olduğundan araştırma bulgularının ilgili alana katkı sağlayacağı söylenebilir. Yapılan analizler sonucunda, çalışma hayatı kalitesinin ilişkisel sözleşme ve psikolojik sahiplenme ile pozitif; işlemsel sözleşme ile de negatif yönde ilişkili olduğunu görülmüştür. Bunun yanı sıra; çalışma hayatı kalitesi ve psikolojik sahiplenme ilişkisinde psikolojik sözleşmenin aracı; sosyal mübadele hassasiyetinin de düzenleyici bir etkiye sahip olduğu tespit edilmiştir.

A RESEARCH ON WORK LIFE QUALITY, PSYCHOLOGICAL CONTRACT AND PSYCHOLOGICAL OWNERSHIP RELATIONSHIP IN THE CONTEXT OF SOCIAL EXCHANGE THEORY
ABSTRACTIn this study, it is aimed to determine the mediating effect of psychological contract and moderating effect of social exchange ideology on work life quality and psychological ownership relationship. During the literature review, it has been noticed that studies on psychological ownership are relatively limited and predominantly focus on its consequences rather than its predictors. With the assumption that perceived quality of work life is an important factor affecting psychological ownership via psychological contract, it was decided to conduct the field research on 218 teachers working in private schools. Since it has not been come across to any research investigating the quality of work life, psychological contract and psychological ownership relationship, it can be said that study findings can make contribution to the relevant area. Research findings showed that perceived quality of work life is associated with both relational contract and psychological ownership positively; and transactional contract negatively. Beside this, the relationship of work life quality and psychological ownership is mediated by psychological contract and moderated by social exchange ideology.
