Publication: Çalışma Amaçlarının Tesbiti ve Çalışma Amaçları Testinin Geliştirilmesi
Abstract
Çalışma eylemini anlamak amacıyla başlatılan bu araştırmada, genelde çalışma değerleri olarak ele alman çalışma amacı incelenmiştir. İlk aşamada, açık uçlu bir soruyla, 239 deneğe çalışmanın nedenleri sorulmuştur. Cevapları kapsam analizinden geçirdikten sonra elde edilen 79 madde ile çalışma amaçlarını ölçen bir test geliştirilmiştir. Test ölçekleri altı aralıklı olup tamamen katılıyorumdan hiç katılmıyoruma doğru uzanmaktadır. Farklı zaman ve ortamlarda bu test 417 üniversite öğrencisine ve 438 işgörene uygulanmıştır. 855 denekten toplanan veriler üzerinde yapılan faktör analizi 12 faktör vermiştir. Ortaya çıkan çalışma amaçları ile batı araştırmaları arasındaki en bariz fark, bu araştırmanın çalışmaya dini bir boyut katmş olmasıdır. İkinci dereceden faktör analizi 12 faktörü üç boyutta toplamıştır.
This study is a starting point in understanding the act of working. Although work-values is a widely used term when work goals are studied, we prefered to name this variable as "work goals". The first step was to find out what these goals are. An open ended question asked why people work. Responses from 239 participants were content analysed and 79 most frequently mentioned responses were selected for constructing a scale measuring work goals. The scale measures agreement on a six-point scale. On different occasions, the test was applied to 417 university students and 438 working people. The data set consisting of 855 Ss was factor analysed. Twelve factors emerged. Most distinctive difference between work-goal structure and work-values structure is the emergence of a factor which brings a religious dimension to working. A second order factor analysis gathered the factors under three dimensions.
