TCDD Makinistlerinin Psikolojik Sermayeleri ve İş Stresleri Üzerine Bir Araştırma

Öz

Bu çalışmanın amacı, psikolojik sermayenin iş stresiyle ilişkisini ortaya koyarak, Türkiye Cumhuriyeti Devlet Demiryolları’nda (TCDD) çalışan makinistler özelinde araştırmaktır. Araştırmanın modeli kurulurken psikolojik sermayenin çekirdek yapısı ve alt boyutlarından her birinin, iş stresi ile ilişkili olabileceği varsayımından yola çıkılmıştır. Bu kapsamda 770 makiniste anket dağıtılmıştır. Anketlerden 75 kişiye ait bilgiler analiz dışı bırakılmış, analiz çalışması 605 kişilik örneklem boyutuyla değerlendirilmiştir. Araştırmada kullanılan ankette demografik soruların yanı sıra Psikolojik Sermaye Ölçeği ile İş Stresi Ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Anket verileri kapsamında yapısal eşitlik modeline ilişkin sonuçlar değerlendirilmiştir. Araştırma modeli çerçevesinde ortaya koyulan hipotezlerin test sonuçlarına göre, psikolojik sermaye ile iş stresi arasında  anlamlı ve ters yönde bir ilişki  bulunmuştur. Ayrıca, umut, öz yeterlilik, iyimserlik, dayanıklılık (psikolojik sermayenin alt boyutları)  ile  iş stresi arasında da anlamlı ve ters yönde bir ilişki olduğu tespit edilmiştir.

A Research on Psychological Capital and Job Stress of TCDD Engine Drivers

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to reveal the relationship between psychological capital and job stress of  the engine drivers who work in the Republic of Turkey State Railways (TCDD). While establishing the model of the study, it was assumed that the core structure and sub-dimensions of psychological capital could be related to work stress. In this context, questionnaries were distributed to 770 engine drivers. The data of 75 people were excluded from the analysis, and the analysis was evaluated with a sample size of 605 people. In addition to demographic questions, the Work Stress Scale and Psychological Capital Scale were used in the survey. The results of the structural equation model were evaluated within the scope of the survey data.  According to the test results of the hypothesis revealed within the framework of the research model, a negative and significant relationship has been found between psychological capital and work stress. In addition, it has been found that there was a negative and significant relationship between the hope, self-efficacy, optimism, resilience (sub-dimensions of psychological capital) and work stress.
