Allen-Meyer Örgütsel Bağlılık Modeli ve Örgütsel Sessizlik İlişkisi: Türkiye'de Sağlık Sektöründe Bir Araştırma

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the organizational commitment of employes in the public health sector has a meaningful effect on employes’s silent behavior. The study was carried out on a total of 120 people working in public hospitals, emergency health service stations and community health centers operating in Balikesir's Erdek municipality. The data of the study were obtained by questionnaire. It was used 'organizational silence scale' developed by Van Dyne, Ang & Botero (2003) to measure the levels of silence and ‘organizational commitment scale' developed by Meyer & Allen (1991) to measure the level of organizational commitment of employees in questionnaire. The reciprocal relations and causal relationships between organizational commitment and sub-dimensions and organizational silence and sub-dimensions were analyzed by correlation and simple linear regression methods. According to the results of the research, organizational commitment affects organizational silence positively. In other words, as the organizational commitment increases, the employee silence increases.
