Abstract

Investigating family problems holds great importance for every society. Interpersonal relationships in society are dependent on the relationships established within the family. When the foundation of the family institution is shaken, the foundations of the entire social and moral system can be affected, leading to serious issues such as emotional divorce in our society. Emotional divorce, which is increasingly prevalent, is considered a temporary stage within the context of formal divorce processes in the literature. In order to understand the growing phenomenon of emotional divorce in Muslim countries where formal divorce is challenging, it is important to explore its underlying causes. Accordingly, the aim of this research is to examine the relationships between personal variables, job burnout, and emotional divorce among married employees in a company. The analyses conducted revealed a positive relationship between emotional divorce and job burnout, duration of marriage and employment, but no significant relationship with age. Additionally, while emotional divorce differs based on gender, it does not differ based on educational level as well as interaction of the both variables. Based on the analysis results, it is possible to develop appropriate actions and strategies to prevent the negative consequences of emotional divorce. In this context, there is a need for conceptual and empirical research on emotional divorce, which is not adequately addressed in the literature. As part of the practical recommendations, including coping strategies and actions against burnout in psychoeducation programs, as well as awareness-raising activities targeting women in the workplace, elder married individuals, and employees with high tenure, would contribute significantly.

Evli Şirket Çalışanların Duygusal Boşanma Düzeylerinin Kişisel Değişkenler ve İş Tükenmişlikleri Arasındaki İlişkilerin İncelenmesi

Abstract

Ailevi sorunların araştırılması her toplum için büyük önem taşımaktadır. Toplumdaki kişilerarası ilişkiler, aile içinde kurulan ilişkilere bağlıdır. Aile kurumunun temeli sarıldığında tüm sosyal ve ahlaki sistemin temelleri sarsılabilir ve bu durum yaşadığımız toplumda duygusal boşanma gibi ciddi sorunlara yol açabilir. Giderek yaygınlaşan duygusal boşanma literatür bağlamında resmi boşanma sürecinin geçici bir aşaması olarak kabul edilmektedir. Resmi olarak boşanmanın zor olduğu Müslüman ülkelerde giderek yaygınlaşan duygusal boşanmanın anlaşılabilmesi için nedenlerinin araştırılması önemlidir. Bu doğrultuda bu araştırmanın amacı; evli şirket çalışanlarında kişisel değişkenler ve iş tükenmişliği ile duygusal boşanma arasındaki ilişkilerin incelenmesi şeklinde belirlenmiştir. Yapılan analizler sonucunda duygusal boşanma ile iş tükenmişliği, evlilik süresi ve çalışma süresi arasında pozitif yönde anlamlı bir ilişki bulunduğu, yaş ile herhangi bir anlamlı ilişki bulunmadığı tespit edilmiştir. Ayrıca duygusal boşanma cinsiyete göre farklılaşırken mezuniyet düzeyine ve her iki değişkenin etkileşimine göre farklılaşmamaktadır. Analiz sonuçlarına göre duygusal boşanmanın olumsuz sonuçlarını önlemek için uygun eylem ve stratejiler geliştirilmesi mümkündür. Bu bağlamda literatürde yeterince ilgi gören bir konu olmayan duygusal boşanma konusunda kavramsal ve görgül araştırmalar yapılmasına ihtiyaç bulunmaktadır. Uygulama önerileri kapsamında ise psikoeğitim programları kapsamında tükenmişlikle mücadele stratejileri ve eylemlerine yer verilmesi, iş hayatında kadınlara, tecrübeli evlilere ve kıdemli çalışanlara yönelik bilinçlendirme faaliyetleri yapılması katkı sağlayıcı olacaktır.
