Item Explaining The Relationship Between Person-Organization Fit And Entrepreneurial Intention Through Workplace Ostracism And Loneliness(Başkent Üniversitesi İktisadi İdari Bilimler Fakültesi, 2024-03-10) Basar, Ufuk; Karamanlioglu, Almula Umay; Sigri, UnsalPurposeThe entrepreneurial intention of employees refers to the motive of those who work in a company to resign and start their businesses instead of continuing to be wage earners. It is one of the under-studied aspects of entrepreneurship research. Accordingly, this research paper aimed to find out whether perceived person-organization fit was related to the entrepreneurial intentions of employees and whether perceived workplace ostracism and loneliness mediated this process.Design/methodology/approachA cross-sectional study was conducted to achieve the purpose. The data were collected through a questionnaire technique from a total of 572 employees. Participants were from 20 different provinces of Turkey and 27 different sectors. Hypotheses were tested through the structural equation modeling technique.FindingsFindings indicated that a lack of perceived person-organization fit resulted in entrepreneurial intention. Workplace ostracism resulted in workplace loneliness. Workplace ostracism and loneliness significantly mediated the relationship between perceived person-organization fit and entrepreneurial intention.Originality/valueTo the best of authors' knowledge, this study was the first to establish and test the relationships between person-organization fit, entrepreneurial intention, workplace ostracism and loneliness. In this regard, findings can benefit researchers and practitioners in better figuring out why some employees leave their companies to start their businesses while others do not.Item How Psychological Safety Influences Intention to Lave? The Mediation Roles of Networking Ability and Relational Job Crafting(CURRENT PSYCHOLOGY, 2024) Kizrak, Meral; cinar, Esra; Aydin, Esra; Kemikkiran, NurcanDrawing on the Conservation of Resources (COR) theory and the social capital approach, this study aims at examining a serial mediation model to explore why employees intend to leave their organization by taking into consideration psychological safety, networking ability and relational job crafting. We tested our research hypotheses with the data obtained from 218 employees working in different sectors. The results revealed that (1) psychological safety is negatively associated with intention to leave, and (2) networking ability and relational job crafting serially mediate the link between psychological safety and intention to leave. This study presents crucial evidence for organizations to retain and engage employees by justifying the importance and effects of building social relationships in the workplace.
