Özet

Sanal kaytarma; iş yerinde çalışma saatleri içerisinde internet ve bilgisayarların işle ilgili olmayan kullanımıdır. Bu araştırma ile Maliye Bakanlığı Milli Emlak Genel Müdürlüğü taşra teşkilatı çalışanlarının sanal kaytarma davranışlarının tespit edilmesi amaçlanmıştır. 147 katılımcı eposta yoluyla anketi doldurarak araştırmaya katılmış ve çalışmanın veri seti elde edilmiştir. Katılımcıların; iş yerinde iş ile ilgisi olmayan internet kullanımları çeşitli demografik değişkenler açısından incelenmiştir ve internet kullanım tercihlerinde bu demografik değişkenliklerin etkisinin olup olmadığı yorumlanmıştır. Katılımcıların sanal kaytarma davranışlarının “önemsiz sanal kaytarma” olarak kabul edilen davranışlarda yoğunlaştığı, “önemli sanal kaytarma” davranışlarında bulunan katılımcıların sayısının ise çok az olduğu ve çalışanların büyük bir çoğunluğunun interneti bilgi edinme aracı olarak gördüğünü sonuçlarına ulaşılmıştır.
