Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı ahlaki çözülmenin etik olmayan örgüt yararına davranış üzerindeki etkisinde demografik faktörlerin düzenleyici rolünü tespit etmektir. Araştırma verileri 111 banka personelinden elde edilmiştir. Araştırma hipotezlerini test etmek amacıyla SPSS Process Macro uygulaması kullanılmıştır. Araştırma verilerinden elde edilen bulgulara göre ahlaki çözülmenin etik olmayan örgüt yararına davranış üzerinde pozitif yönlü ve anlamlı bir etkisi olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Demografik değişkenlerin düzenleyci rolüne ilişkin yapılan istatiksel analizler neticesinde ahlaki çözülme ve etik olmayan örgüt yararına davranış arasındaki ilişkide medeni durumun düzenleyici bir role sahip olduğu ortaya konmuştur. Cinsiyet, yaş, eğitim durumu, iş pozisyonu, çalışma süresi ve sektörel durumun araştırma değişkenleri arasındaki ilişkide düzenleyci bir rolü olmadığı tespit edilmiştir. Araştırma sonuçları neticesinde uygulayacılara ve araştırmacılara yönelik çeşitli öneriler sunulmuştur.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to determine the moderator role of demographic factors on the effect of moral disengagement on unethical pro-organizational behavior. Research data were obtained from 111 bank personnel. SPSS Process Macro application was used to test the research hypotheses. According to the findings obtained from the research data, it is determined that moral disengagement has a positive and significant effect on unethical pro-organizational behaviour. As a result of the statistical analyzes on the moderator role of demographic variables, it is revealed that marital status has a moderator role on the relationship between moral disengagement and unethical pro-organizational behavior. It is determined that gender, age, education, job position, length of employment and sector do not have a moderator role on the relationship between research variables. As a result of the research results, various suggestions for practitioners and researchers are presented.
