The world of work is going through substantial changes and at the same time facing significant challenges. Although many of these changes and challenges are emerging more or less simultaneously across the globalized world such as the diffusion of artificial intelligence use and work disruption due to COVID-19, workers’ experiences of them vary substantially. The articles in this Special Issue of Studies in Psychology contribute to our understanding of this variation in workers’ experiences and highlight the role of organizational and cultural contexts in shaping worker experiences and outcomes in this new era.

İş dünyası önemli değişimlerden geçerken aynı zamanda ciddi zorluklarla karşı karşıya bulunmakta. Yapay zeka kullanımının yaygınlaşması ve COVID-19’un iş hayatını sekteye uğratması örneklerinde olduğu gibi, bu değişimler ve zorlukların çoğu küreselleşen dünyada aşağı yukarı eşzamanlı olurken, çalışanların bunları deneyimleme biçimleri büyük ölçüde farklılık göstermekte. Psikoloji Çalışmaları’nın bu özel sayısındaki makaleler çalışan deneyimlerindeki bu farklılığı anlamamıza katkıda bulunmakta ve içinde bulunduğumuz bu yeni dönemde yaşanan bu deneyimlerin ve onların sonuçlarının şekillenmesinde örgütsel ve kültürel bağlamın rolüne dikkat çekmektedir.
