Abstract

The purpose of this study is to test the moderating role of general self-efficacy on the effect of dark personality traits (narcissism, Machiavellianism, and psychopathy) on burnout. In this context, a total of 182 employees from a private sector enterprise operating in Sakarya participated in the study. Hayes's (2013) PROCESS model was used to test the moderating role of general self-efficacy on the effect of dark personality traits on burnout. According to the findings of the study, it was found that general self-efficacy had a significant moderating role on the effect of narcissism only on burnout global and emotional exhaustion. General self-efficacy did not play a moderating role on the effect of other variables (Dark Triad global, Machiavellianism, and psychopathy) on burnout.

Abstract

Bu çalışmanın
amacı çalışanların karanlık kişilik özelliklerinin (narsisizm, Makyavelizm ve
psikopati) tükenmişliğe etkisinde genel öz-yeterliliğin düzenleyici rolünün
test edilmesidir. Bu kapsamda Sakarya’da faaliyet gösteren bir özel sektör
işletmesinden toplamda 182 çalışan araştırmaya dâhil olmuştur. Çalışanların
karanlık kişilik özelliklerinin tükenmişliğe etkisinde genel öz-yeterliliğin düzenleyici
rolünün tespit edilmesi için Hayes’in (2013) PROCESS modelinden
yararlanılmıştır. Araştırma bulgularına göre sadece narsisizmin duygusal
tükenmeye etkisinde, genel öz-yeterliliğin anlamlı bir şekilde düzenleyici
etkisi olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Harici değişkenlerin (Karanlık Üçlü toplam
skor, Makyavelizm, psikopati) tükenmişliğe etkisinde, genel öz-yeterlilik
düzenleyici rol oynamamıştır.
