Öncül- Davranış-Sonuç Analizlerinin Güvenli Davranışa Yönelik Tutum Ölçeği Çalışmasında Kullanılması

Abstract

Bu çalışmanın birincil amacı, Öncül-Davranış-Sonuç analizleri kullanılarak geliştirilen “Güvenli Davranışa Yönelik Tutum Ölçeğini” tanıtmaktır. Çalışmanın ikincil amacı ise; Öncül- Davranış- Sonuç analizlerinin kuramsal temelini ve bu analizlerin nasıl yapılması gerektiğini bu örnek çalışmayla ortaya koymaktır. Çalışmaya Arçelik Pişirici Cihazlar İşletmesi Montaj Bantlarında çalışan 266 mavi yakalı işçi katılmıştır. Araştırma sonunda Güvenli Davranışa Yönelik Tutum Ölçeğinin; işini ciddiye alma tertip düzen, operasyon planına uygun çalışma, kişisel koruyucu donanım kullanımı, işe dikkat vermek, yorgunluk ve zorlanma, daha çok iş yapmak, küçük hatalar ve fazla mesai olarak isimlendirilen sekiz alt faktörü olduğu görülmüştür. Bulgular ölçeğin; kapsam geçerliği, yapı geçerliği, iç güvenirliği hakkında tatmin edici sonuçlar vermiştir. Bulgular kaza geçiren ve geçirmeyen katılımcılar karşılaştırıldığında; yorgunluk ve zorlanma ile küçük hatalar faktörlerinin anlamlı olarak farklılaştığını göstermektedir. Bu bulgu ölçeğin ayırt eden geçerliği ile ilgili tatmin edici bilgiler vermektedir. Böylece Güvenli Davranışa Yönelik Tutum Ölçeğinin psikometrik özellikleri görgül olarak ortaya konulmuş geçerli ve güvenilir bir ölçek olduğu söylenebilir. Ayrıca çalışma sonunda güvenli davranış ölçeklerinin kullanımında dikkat edilmesi gereken noktalara yer verilmiştir.
