ÖRGÜTSEL GÜVEN: BİR ÖLÇEK GELİŞTİRME ÇALIŞMASI

Öz

Bu çalışmada, örgütsel güven değişkeninin önemli olduğu düşünülen sektörler olan sağlık, eğitim ve sanayi sektörlerinden hareketle, tüm sektörlerde faaliyet gösteren işletme/kurumlardaki örgütsel güven uygulamalarını belirleyebilmek, bilimsel yöntemlere dayanarak geçerliği ve güvenirliği yüksek bir ölçme aracı ile ölçebilmek için bir “Örgütsel Güven Ölçeği” geliştirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Çalışma, sağlık, eğitim ve sanayi sektörü olmak üzere üç farklı örneklem grubundan elde edilen veriler ile yapılmıştır. Veri toplama aracı olarak çalışma grubu tarafından, literatür doğrultusunda 5’li Likert şeklinde hazırlanan 18 maddeden oluşan taslak ölçek kullanılmıştır. Veriler paket program ile analiz edilmiştir. Geçerlik ve güvenirlik çalışmaları doğrultusunda KFA ve DFA yapılmıştır. Analiz sonuçlarına göre “Örgütsel Güven Ölçeği” üç alt boyut ve 17 maddeden oluşmuştur. Ayrıca, yapılan güvenilirlik analizleri sonucunda ölçeğin yüksek düzeyde güvenilir olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Örgütsel Güven Ölçeğinin, çalışma arkadaşlarına duyulan güven, yöneticiye duyulan güven ve kuruma duyulan güveni içeren üç boyutlu yapısı ile, bundan sonra yapılacak araştırmalarda örgütsel güveni belirlemeye ve ölçmeye yönelik önemli bir ihtiyacı karşılayarak alandaki bir boşluğu dolduracağı değerlendirilmektedir.
