Abstract

This research was carried out to identify the relationship between perceived employability of psychological capital and its dimensions (optimism, self-efficacy, hope, and psychological resilience). In this context; A questionnaire was applied to students studying in various schools and faculties (264) electronically via random sampling method. The results of the analysis support that the structural validity of the scales are appropriate and that the psychological capital and dimensions of the students significantly and positively affect the perceived employability. It is thought that the findings of this study can make a significant contribution to filling the gap in the literature on the subject and can support the training and development processes of people who are about to enter the business life or those who will change their career, in a practical sense.

Özet

Bu araştırma psikolojik sermaye ve boyutlarının (iyimserlik, öz yeterlilik, umut ve psikolojik dayanıklılık) algılanan istihdam edilebilirlik arasındaki ilişkiyi tespit etmek amacıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bu kapsamda; çeşitli yüksekokul ve fakültelerinde öğrenim görmekte olan öğrencilere (264) tesadüfi örneklem yöntemi ile elektronik ortamda anket uygulaması yapılmıştır. Analiz sonuçları, ölçeklerin yapısal geçerliliğinin uygun olduğunu ve öğrencilerin psikolojik sermaye ve boyutlarının algılanan istihdam edilebilirlik üzerinde anlamlı ve pozitif yönde etkilediğini desteklemektedir. Bu çalışmanın bulgularının, konuyla ilgili literatürdeki boşluğun doldurulmasına önemli önemli bir katkı yapabileceği ve iş hayatına giriş yapmak üzere olan veya kariyer değiştirecek kişilerin eğitim ve gelişim süreçlerini, pratik anlamda, destekleyebileceği düşünülmektedir.
