Abstract

The aim of this study aims to investigate the effect of psychological contract perception on employees' job satisfaction and their intention to leave distinctly from the related literature. In parallel with the context, the researchers have conducted a field study with the participation of 153 research assistants from a public university. SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Sciences) program is used for analysing the obtained data. The data shows that demographic factors of education and academic field of study are effective on the psychological contract perceptions and job satisfaction of the research assistants and their intention to leave. Furthermore, there is a relationship between the aforementioned perceptions and intentions. In the same way, the psychological contract perception is effective on job satisfaction and intention to leave. The findings of this research are significant in terms of guiding managers and institutions to consider the psychological contract framework to increase employee satisfaction and reduce the labour turnover rate.

Özet

Bu araştırmanın amacı ilgili literatürden farklı olarak psikolojik sözleşme algısının, çalışanların iş tatminleri ve işten ayrılma niyetleri üzerindeki etkisini incelemektir. Bu bağlamda bir kamu üniversitesindeki 153 araştırma görevlisinin katıldığı bir alan araştırması yürütülmüştür. Verilerin analizinde SPSS (Sosyal Bilimler için İstatistik Paket Programı) programı kullanılmıştır. Analizler sonucunda araştırma görevlilerinin psikolojik sözleşme ve iş tatmini algıları ile işten ayrılma niyetleri üzerinde demografik faktörlerden eğitim ve akademik çalışma alanının etkili olduğu, söz konusu algı ve niyetler arasında ilişki bulunduğu ve psikolojik sözleşme algısının iş tatmini ve işten ayrılma niyeti üzerinde etkili olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Araştırma sonuçlarının yöneticiler ve kurumların çalışan tatminini artırarak işgücü devir hızını azaltmak amacıyla psikolojik sözleşme çerçevesini dikkate alması noktasında yol gösterici olması açısından kullanışlı olması beklenmektedir.
