Ortaya konan bu araştırmada işkolikliğin iş-aile çatışma üzerindeki etkisini ortaya koymak ve bu etki sürecinde çalışanların cinsiyetlerinin düzenleyici bir etkiye sahip olup olmadığını incelemek amaç olarak belirlenmiştir. Bu bağlamda araştırma, Ankara’da bulunan devlet üniversitelerinde görev yapan 401 akademisyenin katılımı ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırmanın sonucunda; işkolikliğin, iş-aile çatışması üzerinde pozitif yönlü anlamlı bir etkisinin bulunduğu (r=0,596, p<0.01), ancak cinsiyetin iki değişken arasında düzenleyici bir etkisinin bulunmadığı tespit edilmiştir. Bunun yanında işkoliklik ve iş-aile çatışmasına yönelik tutumların ise cinsiyete göre farklılık gösterdiği ve kadın akademisyenlerin işkoliklik ve iş-aile çatışmasına yönelik tutumlarının erkeklere göre daha yüksek olduğu ulaşılan diğer bir bulgudur.

The Relationship Between Workaholism And Work-Family Conflict: Examining the Moderator Effect of Gender

Öz

This study aims to explore the impact of workaholism on work-family conflict and to investigate whether the employees' gender plays a moderating role in this relationship. The research involved 401 academicians from state universities in Ankara, using a snowball sampling method. In this context, the research was conducted with the participation of 401 academicians working in state universities in Ankara. As a result of the study, it was determined that workaholism had a significant positive effect on work-family conflict (r=0.596, p<0.01), but gender did not have a moderating effect between the two variables. In addition, it is another finding that attitudes towards workaholism and work-family conflict differ according to gender and that female academics have higher attitudes towards workaholism and work-family conflict than male academics.
