Abstract

The imposter phenomenon refers to a strong belief that causes an individual to experience a constant fear of failure in daily life and to feel inadequate despite objective evidence to the contrary. Although this phenomenon, which can trigger feelings of burnout in the long run, is very popular in the international literature, its presence in Turkish culture has only recently begun to be examined. This study investigates the role of self-efficacy in mediating the relationship between the imposter phenomenon and burnout among university students. Data were collected through face-to-face surveys from 418 students enrolled in health-related undergraduate and associate degree programs, who are expected to have direct patient contact in their future careers. SPSS and AMOS statistical programs were used to analyze the data obtained. Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) was applied in the research based on the Structural Equation Model (SEM) framework, path analyses were drawn and the hypotheses of the research were tested. According to the results of the study, imposter phenomenon affects burnout positively and self-efficacy negatively. According to this, students with imposter emotions are much more likely to experience burnout and this reduces their self-efficacy. It was also found that self-efficacy has a partial mediating role in the effect of imposter phenomenon on burnout. The fact that there is no study in the related literature in which the three variables of the research are addressed together suggests that this research will fill an important gap.

Özet

Imposter fenomeni, bireyin günlük yaşamında sürekli başarısızlık korkusu yaşamasına ve temelde aksi yöndeki nesnel kanıtlara rağmen kendisini yetersiz hissetmesine neden olan güçlü bir inanca karşılık gelmektedir. Uzun vadede bireylerin tükenmişlik duygularını tetikleyebilen bu fenomen, uluslararası yazın dünyasında oldukça popüler olmasına karşın Türk kültüründeki varlığı henüz yeni incelenmeye başlanmıştır. Bu çalışmada, üniversite öğrencilerinden toplanan veriler üzerinden imposter fenomeninin tükenmişlik üzerindeki etkisinde öz-yeterliliğin rolü ortaya konulmuştur. Bu amaç doğrultusunda gelecekte sahada doğrudan hastalarla temas halinde olacak sağlıkla ilişkili lisans ve ön lisans programlarından 418 öğrenciye yüz yüze anket yöntemi vasıtasıyla ulaşılmıştır. Elde edilen verilerin analizinde SPSS ve AMOS istatistik programları kullanılmıştır. Yapısal Eşitlik Modeli (YEM) çerçevesinde temellendirilen araştırmada Doğrulayıcı Faktör Analizi (DFA) uygulanarak, yol analizleri çizilmiş ve araştırmanın hipotezleri test edilmiştir. Araştırmanın sonuçlarına göre imposter fenomeni tükenmişliği pozitif yönde, öz-yeterliliği ise negatif yönde etkilemektedir. Buna göre imposter fenomenine sahip öğrencilerin tükenmişlik yaşama olasılıkları çok daha yüksektir ve bu durumda onların öz-yeterliliklerini azaltmaktadır. Ayrıca imposter fenomeninin tükenmişlik üzerindeki etkisinde öz-yeterliliğin kısmi aracılık rolü olduğu tespit edilmiştir. İlgili alan yazında araştırmanın üç değişkeninin birlikte ele alındığı bir araştırmaya rastlanmaması, bu araştırmanın önemli bir boşluğu dolduracağını düşündürmektedir.
