Abstract

The authors report the results of a study (N = 341 Turkish university students) that, fi rst, tested the validity of Kernis and Goldman’s multicomponent conceptualization of authenticity (proposed in the individualist U.S. context, involving the components of awareness, unbiased processing, authentic behavior, and relational orientation) in the Turkish collectivist context; and, second, explored the relationship of authenticity with (a) gender, (b) individualistic and collectivistic cultural-orientations, and (c) basic self-orientations (i.e., relational and individuational orientations, as suggested by Imamoğlu’s Balanced Integration-Differentiation Model). Results provided support to the multicomponent hierarchical conceptualization of authenticity. Furthermore, although gender (being female), individualism, and collectivism predicted some components of authenticity, only individuation and relatedness appeared as consistently signifi cant predictors of general authenticity and each of its components. Results are discussed with reference to culture and the models on which the study is based.

Özet

Mevcut makalede sunulan ve 341 Türk üniversite öğrencisinin katılımıyla gerçekleşen çalışmada, önce, Kernis ve Goldman’ın bireyci kültür özellikleri gösteren ABD’de geliştirdikleri, çok ögeli (farkındalık, yansızlık, ilişkisel özgünlük ve özgün davranış olarak nitelendirilen) özgünlük kavramsallaştırmasının geçerliliğinin, daha toplulukçu olan Türkiye bağlamında sınanması; ikinci olarak da özgünlüğün, kişilerin (a) cinsiyet, (b) bireyci-toplulukçu kültürel yönelimleri ve (c) temel benlik yönelimleriyle (İmamoğlu’nun Dengeli Bütünleşme ve Ayırdetme-Ayrışma Modeli’nde önerilen ilişkililik ve kendileşme boyutları ile) olan bağlantılarının incelenmesi amaçlanmaktadır. Bulgular, çok ögeli hiyerarşik özgünlük modelinin, anılan Türk örneklemi için geçerliliğine destek sağlamıştır. İkinci amaçla ilgili bulgulara göre ise, kadın olmak ile bireycilik ve toplulukçuluk yönelimlerinin, özgünlüğün bazı boyutlarını yordadığı; ancak anılan etkilerden bağımsız olarak, hem genel özgünlüğü hem de özgünlüğün her bir boyutunu yalnız kendileşme ve ilişkililik yönelimlerinin tutarlı olarak yordadığı saptanmıştır. Bulgular araştırmanın dayandığı ilgili modeller ve kültür çerçevesinde tartışılmaktadır.
