Abstract

Günümüzün dinamik iş dünyasında, bilgi bir örgütün sürdürülebilir rekabet avantajına katkıda bulunan en önemli örgütsel kaynaktır. Bununla birlikte, bilgi sadece çalışanlar paylaşmaya istekli olduğu sürece örgüt tarafından kullanılabilir. Bilgi paylaşımı, en az iki taraf arasındaki sürekli ve karmaşık etkileşim sürecidir. Bu çalışanlar ve işverenler veya örgütler arasındaki istihdam ilişkisinin şart ve koşulları belirleyen karşılıklı yükümlülüklerle dolu bir psikolojik sözleşmeye dayalı karşılıklı bir süreç olarak ele alınabilir. Bu araştırmanın amacı, psikolojik sözleşme türlerinin bilgi paylaşımı üzerine etkisini incelemektedir. Önceki çalışmalara dayanarak, psikolojik sözleşme kavramı, ilişkisel ve işlemsel psikolojik sözleşme olmak üzere iki temel boyutta ele alınmıştır. Bilgi paylaşımı ise, tek boyutla incelenmiştir. Bu araştırma için Gaziantep Üniversitesi’nde görev yapan 320 akademik personelden anket yöntemiyle veri toplanmıştır. Elde edilen veriler çoklu regresyon analizi ile değerlendirilmiştir. Bulgular, işlemsel psikolojik sözleşmenin bilgi paylaşımı üzerinde anlamlı ve negatif etkisi olduğunu, ancak ilişkisel psikolojik sözleşmenin bilgi paylaşımı üzerinde anlamlı ve pozitif etkisi olduğunu göstermektedir.

Keywords
