Abstract

Prijašnja istraživanja otkrila su pozitivnu korelaciju između percipiranog prekršaja psihološkog ugovora i nepoželjnog organizacijskog ponašanja. Ovo istraživanje imalo je namjeru ispitati moderacijski učinak savjesnosti na taj odnos te utvrditi postoji li povezanost nepoželjnog organizacijskog ponašanja te nekoliko demografskih varijabli koje bi ga mogle predviđati. Istraživanje je provedeno metodom papir-olovka upitnika te je u njemu sudjelovalo ukupno 360 zaposlenika, od čega su 181 bile žene, prosječne dobi od 38 godina. Sudionici su prilikom ispunjavanja upitnika procijenili stupanj u kojem osjećaju da je prekršen psihološki ugovor, vlastitu razinu savjesnosti te čestinu kojom se upuštaju u nepoželjno organizacijsko ponašanje. Osim toga, prikupljene su i informacije o njihovim sociodemografskim karakteristikama. U konačnici je potvrđena veza između prekršaja psihološkog ugovora i nepoželjnih organizacijskih ponašanja iz kategorije organizacijske devijantnosti. Povezanost prekršaja psihološkog ugovora i interpersonalne devijantnosti i moderacijski učinak dimenzije savjesnosti nisu pronađeni. Preporuke za buduća istraživanja u polju su prvenstveno veći, reprezentativniji uzorak i širi raspon korištenih metoda i instrumenata. Dobiveni rezultati ukazuju na to da bi se nepoželjno organizacijsko ponašanje moglo bolje definirati kroz detaljniju analizu i uključivanje drugačijih varijabli u budućim istraživanjima.

Abstract (english)

Research conducted in the past found a positive correlation between perceived psychological contract breach and counterproductive work behavior. This research aimed to test whether conscientiousness had a moderating effect on it, in addition to examining some demographic variables that could potentially predict counteproductive work behaviours. The research was conducted by method of paper-and-pencil questionnaires and had a total of 360 employees, of which 181 were women, with an average age of 38. Over the course of testing, the participants estimated the degree in which they feel like the psychological contract has been breached, their own level of conscientiousness and how often they engage in counterproductive work behavior. In addition, information on their sociodemographic characteristics was collected. A correlation was found between perceived psychological contract breach and counterproductive work behaviors in the category of organisational deviance. Neither a correlation between psychological contract breach and interpersonal deviance, nor the moderating effect of conscientiousness was found. Suggestions for future research in the field mainly include a larger, more representative sample and a wider range of methods and instruments. The results indicate that counterproductive work behavior could be better defined through more detailed analysis and inclusion of different variables in future research.
