Bu çalışmada çıkar bağlılığının örgüt yararına etik olmayan davranışlara etkisinde statü arzusu (makyavelizm) ve lider-üye etkileşiminin etkileşmiş aracı etkisinin ortaya koyulması amaçlanmaktadır. Araştırmanın teorik altyapısı, sosyal mübadele kuramına dayanmaktadır. Bu çalışma, çalışmanın amacına uygun olarak nicel araştırma yöntemi ile yürütülmüştür. Çevrim içi anket formları aracılığıyla elde edilen veriler SPSS 22 programı kullanılarak bilgisayar ortamına aktarılmış ve verilerin analizinde SmartPLS 4 programı kullanılmıştır. Verilerin analizinde yapısal eşitlik modeli kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın sonuçlarına göre, çalışma yaşamında pazarlama ve satış faaliyetinde bulunan bireylerin liderleriyle olan etkileşimleri, çıkar bağlılığı ve örgüt yararına etik olmayan davranışlar arasındaki dolaylı ilişkiyi negatif olarak etkilemiş ve bu etkileşmiş aracı etkiye statü arzusunun aracılık ettiği ortaya koyulmuştur.

THE EFFECT OF CALCULATIVE COMMITMENT ON UNETHICAL PRO-ORGANIZATIONAL BEHAVIOUR: THE ROLE OF DESIRE FOR STATUS AND LEADER-MEMBER EXCHANGE

Öz

The purpose of this study is to identify the interactive mediating effect of status desire (makyavelism) and leader-member exchange on the effect of calculative commitment on unethical pro-organizational behaviour. The theoretical background of the study is based on social exchange theory. In accordance with the purpose of this study, quantitative research method was used. The data obtained through online questionnaire forms were transferred to the computer environment using SPSS 22 program and SmartPLS 4 program was used to analyze the data. Structural equation modelling was used to analyze the data. According to the results of the study, it was revealed that the interaction of individuals engaged in marketing and sales activities with their leaders negatively affected the indirect relationship between calculative commitment and unethical pro-organizational behaviour, and this mediating effect was mediated by the desire for status.
