Personality, Organizational Climate and Therapeutic Factors of Group Dynamics

Abstract

This study aims to reveal how therapeutic factors of group dynamics are related to organizational climate and personality dimensions. These therapeutic factors are used to evaluate group strengths and limitations in clinical psychology (Yalom, 1995), and are now adapted to the field of organizational behavior. This adaptation aims to illuminate how an organization's psychological climate and its members' personality traits impact workplace socialization and team social interaction. As part of the research, the therapeutic factors scale (group dynamics inventory, GDI) (Phan et al., 2004)), was introduced into the Turkish context, and the necessary validity analyses were carried out. The study was conducted with a sample of service sector employees working as a group (in teams) in Ankara. The research results indicate that group dynamics had a positive and significant link with personality types and organizational climate. As a result, a positive relation was discovered between altruism, which is a group dynamics inventory sub-dimension and these personality dimensions, extraversion, agreeableness, and stability. When the link between organizational climate and group dynamics was explored, a positive and substantial association was discovered. As a result of the analysis, a positive relationship was found between reward, standards, and structure, which are sub-dimensions of organizational climate, and altruism and cohesiveness, which are sub-dimension of group dynamics.
