Bu bağlamda,Ankara’da görev yapan hizmet sektörü çalışanlarından elden ve elektronik ortamda doldurulan anketformlarından 442 katılımcıya ait veriler analiz edilmiştir. Çalışmada değişkenler arası ilişkiler ve etkilerinibelirlemek için korelâsyon ve regresyon analizleri gerçekleştirilmiş, değişkenlere ait ölçeklerindoğrulanması için ise yapısal eşitlik modeli kullanılmıştır.Bulgular – Hizmet sektörü çalışanlarını mesleki özdeşleşme düzeyinin iş biçimlendirme davranışlarınıanlamlı ve pozitif şekilde etkilediği görülmüştür. Benzer şekilde yine işlerini psikolojik olarak sahiplenençalışanların daha çok iş biçimlendirme davranışları sergiledikleri sonucuna varılmıştır.Tartışma – Bu çalışma mesleki özdeşleşme ve psikolojik sahiplenme düzeylerinin iş biçimlendirmedavranışlarına etkisini ortaya koymaya çalışmaktadır. Yazında hizmet sektörü çalışanları açısından sözkonusu değişkenlerin ikili ilişkilerini ele alan çalışmaların oldukça sınırlı sayıda olduğu görülmüş, üçdeğişkeni birlikte inceleyen bir çalışmaya ise rastlanamamıştır. Bu bağlamda çalışma sonuçlarının hemyazın hem de uygulayıcılar açısından olduğu değerlendirilmektedir.
