Öğe Cultural intelligence (CQ) in action: The effects of personality and international assignment on the development of CQ(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2014) Sahin, Faruk; Gurbuz, Sait; Koksal, OnurWe examined (1) the effect of international assignments on the development of cultural intelligence - CQ over time (2) whether crucial personality traits (i.e., extraversion and openness to experience) had a moderating role in the relationship between international assignments and CQ in a longitudinal design. A total sample of 145 military personnel participated in the study at the beginning of the deployment (Time 1) and 121 persons participated at the end of the deployment (Time 2) in a multinational and multicultural military organization. Repeated measures multivariate analysis of covariance showed that the 6-month international assignment did have a statistically significant effect on the development of all four facets of CQ over time. Moreover, moderated multiple regression analyses demonstrated that individuals who are high on extraversion improved their metacognitive CQand behavioral CQ more than did individuals who are low on extraversion. Similarly, individuals who are high on openness to experience improved their motivational CQ more than did individuals who are low on openness to experience. Implications for future research and practice are discussed. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

The participants of this study were 540 university students from Turkey and Poland. The results showed that the need to belong is a significant predictor of usage intensity of SNSs, the consecutive influences of emotion disclosure and make connection intention significantly mediate this relationship, and some of these direct and indirect relationships are varying in the different collectivism conditions. All these findings were discussed according to the related theories and the findings in the literature with suggestions for future studies.Öğe Happiness and domain satisfaction in Turkey(Inderscience Enterprises Ltd, 2017) Koksal, Onur; Ucak, Harun; Sahin, FarukLiterature on the economics of happiness usually indicates that happiness depends on actual life circumstances (income, health, marital status and cetera). In contrast, a psychological view of happiness suggests that subjective satisfaction with actual life domains comes together to predict happiness. Little is known about the relation of happiness to the different life domains in developing countries. The present study explores the factors that shape individual happiness at a micro-level in Turkey, in terms of satisfaction with several life domains. Using the 2008-2012 Turkish life satisfaction survey (n = 36.362) this study adds to existing literature on happiness in developing countries in its focus on Turkey. The data reveal that among the satisfaction-related predictor variables, satisfaction with income, marriage, and health were the top three predictors of happiness in all years. Implications and suggestions for future studies are discussed.Öğe Measuring Cultural Intelligence in the Turkish Context(WILEY-BLACKWELL, 2013) Sahin, Faruk; Gurbuz, Sait; Koksal, Onur; Ercan, UmitThe present article reports the results of two studies designed to evaluate the psychometric properties of the cultural intelligence (CI) scale in the Turkish context. The proposed four-factor (cognitive, metacognitive, motivational, and behavioral) structure of CI was confirmed by confirmatory factor analysis. The results supported the discriminant validity of the four-factor model of the CI scale in relation to the Big Five personality factors and the emotional intelligence factors. Furthermore, CI explained additional variance in intercultural task performance over and above that explained by demographic characteristics and emotional intelligence. With regard to internal consistency and testretest reliability, the CI scale showed acceptable results and was in concordance with the prior studies. Taken together, these findings suggest that the Turkish version of CI scale is a reliable and valid measure that can be used to measure individual's intercultural capabilities.Öğe Measuring the Relationship between Managerial Resourcefulness and Job Performance(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2015) Sahin, Faruk; Koksal, Onur; Ucak, Harun; Iacob, AIManagerial resourcefulness includes generic competencies that enable adaptive responses to the demands of complex and volatile aspects of the work environment. However, there is no evidence that managerial resourcefulness increase job performance. In this study, we examined the relationship between managerial resourcefulness and job performance in a sample 119 first-line and middle managers. Data was collected through structured surveys administered to the managers and their superiors. The results indicated that managerial resourcefulness is positively associated with the superior ratings of job performance. The findings also showed that managerial resourcefulness explains additional variance in job performance over and above that of demographic variables and the Big Five traits of personality. These findings suggest the importance of managerial resourcefulness as a critical predictor of job performance. Implications for future research and practice are discussed. (C) The Authors.

The authors used the PROCESS, an SPSS macro, to conduct multiple regression analyses to test this moderated mediation model.FindingsThe results suggest that cultural intelligence mediates the relationship between proactive personality and job performance during cross-cultural service encounters. Furthermore, the indirect effect of proactive personality on job performance during cross-cultural service encounters via cultural intelligence is stronger for service employees who are high in emotional intelligence.Practical implicationsThis study has several implications for hospitality management in terms of developing effective strategies to foster cultural and emotional intelligence of service employees and improve the employees' performance.Originality/valueConsidering the limited number of studies showing why, how and in which situations personality can enhance performance, this study contributes to the literature by revealing the effect of proactive personality on the performance of service employees through important constructs such as cultural intelligence and emotional intelligence.Öğe Revisiting of Theory X and Y A multilevel analysis of the effects of leaders' managerial assumptions on followers' attitudes(EMERALD GROUP PUBLISHING LIMITED, 2014) Gurbuz, Sait; Sahin, Faruk; Koksal, OnurPurpose - The purpose of this paper is to investigate the influence of leaders' Theory X and Y managerial assumptions on subordinates' attitudes and behaviors. Design/methodology/approach - Military leaders (n = 50) completed a questionnaire with Theory X and Y scale and their subordinates (n = 150) completed a questionnaire with the scales of satisfaction with leader, affective commitment, and organizational citizenship behavior. The paper used hierarchical linear modeling to test the hypotheses. Findings - The results indicated that the Theory Y management style is significantly and positively associated with subordinates' satisfaction with the leader, affective commitment, and organizational citizenship behaviors. The Theory X management style had a significantly negative impact on subordinates' satisfaction with the leader, but no significant impact on affective commitment and organizational citizenship behavior. The findings of the present study suggest that the Theory X and Y managerial assumptions are a worthwhile basis from which to examine several important organizational and individual outcomes. Research limitations/implications - The sample consisted of military personnel and were predominantly male. This may limit the generalizability of the findings. Practical implications - The findings of the present study suggest that the Theory X and Y managerial assumptions are a worthwhile basis from which to examine several important organizational and individual outcomes. Originality/value - Although McGregor's (1960) Theory X and Y have contributed to management and leadership thinking and practice for many years; empirical studies examining the Theory X and Y managerial assumptions in a work environment are very scarce. By examining the effect of leader's Theory X and Y managerial assumptions on follower's attitudes and behaviors, the study provides important insights for leadership literature.Öğe THE EFFECT OF CSR ON CONTEXTUAL PERFORMANCE: MEDIATING ROLE OF CORPORATE REPUTATION(Future Acad, 2019) Akdogan, A. Asuman; Koksal, Onur; Cingoz, AyseCorporate social responsibility (CSR) is comprised of activities carried out by organizations in order to provide social and environmental benefits beyond economic, technical and legal requirements. Perceptions of CSR will encourage employees' in-role and extra-role behaviors and thus enable the achievement of organizational goals. Also, the CSR activities performed by the organizations positively affect the perceptions of the stakeholders (especially the employees) regarding corporate reputation. This study aims to examine the mediating role of corporate reputation in explaining the effect of the employees' perceptions of corporate social responsibility practices on contextual performance. Research data are collected via questionnaire surveys from the administrative staff, and white-collar employees of the industrial businesses operating in Kayseri Organized Industrial Zone (Kayseri, Turkey). As the results of analyses performed through various statistical methods, it was found that corporate reputation assumes a full mediating role over the impact of corporate social responsibility on contextual performance. The obtained findings were discussed in the context of the literature.

Nonetheless, considering the emotional labor forms as complementary strategies rather than investigating each on its own may improve our understanding of the personal and organizational outcomes of the emotional labor concept. This study examined the relationship between natural emotional labor and organizational commitment and the moderating role of surface and deep acting on this relationship. For that purpose, quantitative data were collected from 332 participants by the questionnaire method. Statistical analysis revealed that natural emotional labor is positively associated with organizational commitment, and this relationship is moderated by surface acting. It was found that surface acting strengthens the relationship between natural emotional labor and organizational commitment, but the moderating role of deep acting is not significant. The findings are discussed in the context of the literature.
