Abstract

The aim of this study is to examine the parallel mediating role of psychological ownership and organizational commitment in the effect of managers' positive leadership behaviors on employee motivation. The universe of the study consists of academic and administrative staff of Bitlis Eren University and the sample consists of 259 participants. Questionnaire technique was used to collect data and 255 completed questionnaire data were subjected to statistical analysis with SPSS 25 and AMOS 24 programs. Regression, correlation, CFA (Confirmatory Factor Analysis), frequency and reliability analyses were applied to data. The research hypotheses were tested with Model 4 in Hayes Process Macro model. According to the results of the analysis, it was determined that positive leadership sub-dimensions had negative and significant relationships with affective commitment sub-dimension of organizational commitment, while work motivation sub-dimensions had positive and significant relationships with psychological ownership and normative and continuance sub-dimensions of organizational commitment. In addition, the analyses revealed that positive leadership has positive and significant effects on work motivation, while psychological ownership and organizational commitment variables have a partial mediating role in this effect.

Özet

Araştırmanın amacı, yöneticilerin pozitif liderlik davranışlarının çalışanların motivasyonu üzerindeki etkisinde psikolojik sahiplik ve örgütsel bağlılığın paralel aracılık rolünü belirlemektir. Araştırmanın ana kütlesini Bitlis Eren Üniversitesi'nin akademik ve idari personeli, örneklemini ise araştırmaya katılan 259 kişi oluşturmaktadır. Verilerin toplanmasında anket tekniği kullanılmış ve eksiksiz doldurulan 255 anket verisi SPSS 25 ve AMOS 24 programlarıyla istatistiksel analizlere tabi tutulmuştur. Verilere regresyon, korelasyon, DFA (Doğrulayıcı Faktör Analizi), frekans ve güvenilirlik analizleri uygunlanmıştır. Araştırma hipotezleri Hayes Process Macro molündeki Model 4 ile test edilmiştir. Analiz sonuçlarına göre, pozitif liderlik alt boyutlarının örgütsel bağlılığın duygusal bağlılık alt boyutuyla negatif ve anlamlı ilişkilere sahip olduğu, iş motivasyonu alt boyutlarının ise psikolojik sahiplik ve örgütsel bağlılığın normatif ve devamlılık alt boyutlarıyla pozitif ve anlamlı ilişkilere sahip olduğu belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca, yapılan analizlerde pozitif liderliğin iş motivasyonu üzerinde pozitif ve anlamlı etkilerinin olduğu, psikolojik sahiplik ve örgütsel bağlılık değişkenlerinin ise bu etkide kısmi aracı rolüne sahip olduğu bulunmuştur.
