DOES POWER DISTANCE AT WORK MAKE EMPLOYEES LONELY?
Abstract
The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between perceived power distance and loneliness at work and whether these variables differ according to demographic characteristics. The Perceived Power Distance and Loneliness at Work scales were used as data collection tools. Descriptive statistical methods were used, as well as independent samples T, ANOVA, and Pearson correlation analysis. Research conducted on 422 employees working in Bolu Municipality, Mersin Metropolitan Municipality, and District Municipalities revealed a statistically significant relationship between employees’ power distance perceptions and loneliness at work. In addition, a significant difference was found between the mean scores of loneliness at work and the emotional deprivation dimension according to age and educational status.
