Özet

Örgütlerde çalışanların affetme eğilimi, intikam niyeti ve ruh sağlıkları arasındaki ilişkiler ile affetme eğiliminin ve intikam niyetinin çalışanların ruh sağlıkları üzerindeki etkisinin belirlenmesi bu araştırmanın temel amacıdır. Kayseri ve Yalova 'da çeşitli kamu ve özel sektör kuruluşlarında 290 çalışan ile gerçekleştirilen araştırma sonuçlarına göre, insanların başkalarını ve bazı durumları affetmeleriyle ruh sağlıkları arasında anlamlı ve pozitif yönde bir ilişki olduğu görülmüştür. Ayrıca, bireylerin intikam niyetleriyle ruh sağlıkları arasında anlamlı ve negatif yönde bir ilişki olduğu görülmüştür. Regresyon analizi sonuçlarına göre ise affetme eğiliminin ruh sağlığı üzerinde anlamlı ve pozitif yönde ve intikam niyetinin ruh sağlığı üzerinde anlamlı ve negatif yönde bir etkiye sahip olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Demografik özellikler itibariyle de işçilerin ruh sağlıklarının yöneticilerinkine göre daha yüksek olduğu, yine işçilerin intikam niyetlerinin yöneticilerinkine kıyasla daha düşük olduğu, evlilerin affetme eğilimlerinin bekârla-rınkine göre daha yüksek olduğu, bekârların ruh sağlığının evlilerinkine göre daha yüksek olduğu belirlenmiştir.
