    The Relationship Among Leadership Style, Sex of Leader, and Sex of Evaluator in the Evaluation of Leadership Behavior
    (Turkish Psychologists Assoc, 2011) Ugurlu, Ozanser; Uğurlu, Ozanser; Hovardaoglu, Selim; Psikoloji
    The purpose of the article was to investigate the relationships among leadership style, sex of leader, and sex of evaluator in the evaluation of leadership behavior in a student sample from Turkey. In order to reach the goal, leadership style and sex of leader were manipulated to prepare four vignettes as autocratic female leader, democrat female leader, autocratic male leader, and democrat male leader. The participants were 386 university students from Middle East Technical University (199 males and 187 females; M=21.74; SD=1.56). After reading one of the vignettes, the participants evaluated the leader by filling out the Evaluation of Leadership Behavior Scale. A 2 (sex of leader: female - male) X 2 (leadership style: autocratic - democrat) X 2 (sex of evaluator: female - male) ANOVA was performed on the evaluation of leadership behavior. Results demonstrated that there was a significant main effect of leadership style. As expected, participants evaluated democratic leader more positively than autocratic leader. In addition, there was a significant two-way interaction between leadership style and sex of evaluator, suggesting that male participants evaluated democratic leader less positively than female participants and that male participants evaluated autocratic leader more positively than female participants. Finally, there was a significant three-way interaction. Both male and female participants evaluated autocratic female leader more negatively than democratic female leader. Further, as compared to male participants, female participants evaluated both democratic male leader and democratic female leader more positively.

    The Mediator Effects of Positive and Negative Affectivity on the Relationship Between Optimism-Pessimism and Satisfaction With Life
    (Hacettepe Univ, 2013) Ugurlu, Ozanser; Uğurlu, Ozanser; Psikoloji
    This study examined the mediation effects of positive and negative affectivity on the relationship between optimism/pessimism and satisfaction with life among university students. Participants were 95 female and 151 male undergraduate students (N = 246). Participants ranged in age from 18 to 26 with a mean of 21.09 (SD = 2.34). Participants completed Life Orientation Scale (LOT), Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS), and Life Satisfaction Scale. Results of correlational analyses demonstrated that the association between optimism and pessimism was -.40. Optimism was significantly associated with PA (r = .40), NA (r = -.26), and satisfaction with life (r = .36). Similarly, pessimism was significantly correlated with PA (r = -.26), NA (r = .39), and satisfaction with life (r = -.30). Finally, optimism had statistically significant direct and indirect links (by means of positive affectivity) with satisfaction with life, whereas pessimism only had statistically significant direct link with life satisfaction.

    Bullying as a Group Process: Investigation of Participant Roles in Terms of Social Status and Gender
    (Turkish Psychologists Assoc, 2015) Topcu, Aysun Ergul; Donmez, Ali
    This study mainly aims to test the participant roles approach on Turkish sample suggesting that bullying is a group process. In this regard, students' ways of involving in bullying and the extent to which children are aware of their participant roles and whether these participant roles differentiate in terms of gender and social status was investigated. A total of 774 students (384 females and 390 males), from 6(th), 7(th) and 8(th) grades of 11 different primary schools in Ankara participated in the study. The results showed that 74% of all children involved in one of the participant roles as bully (11.5%), assistant-reinforcer (10.9%), defender (21.1%), outsider (20.9%) and victim (9.7%). The examinations of the relations between self-reported and peer-reported scores of participant roles revealed that children were aware of their roles in the bullying situations, however, they significantly underestimated their roles in bully and assistant-reinforcer scales while overestimated their roles in the defender and outsider scales. Boys are more actively involved in bullying process than girls; boys participated most frequently in the roles of bully, assistant-reinforcer and victim while girls participated most frequently in the defender and outsider roles. In terms of the findings related to social status, victims were the least accepted and most rejected group among their peers although they did not differentiate from bullies and assistant-reinforcer in this sense. Besides, the victims were

    Employees’ relative deprivation for females and supervisory commitment: The mediating roles of interpersonal justice, informational justice, and perceived empathy
    (2014) Göncü Köse, Aslı
    The present study aims to test a model derived from a conceptual framework that attempted to explain negative interactions among supervisor-employee dyads from a Relative Deprivation Theory (RDT) and justice-related perspective. Employees’ perceptions of fraternal (group) deprivation on part of females compared to males in their organizations were suggested to be related to their interpersonal and informational justice perceptions as well as their perceptions of supervisors’ empathy. Employees’ perceptions of justice and empathy, in turn, were suggested to be positively associated with overall supervisory commitment. Moreover, the moderating effects of employee gender on the proposed relationships were investigated. The data was collected from 114 employees who were enrolled in undergraduate classes in a Southwestern university in USA. The proposed model as well as the alternative models were tested by Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) technique using AMOS 6.0 software. The findings revealed that proposed mediated model was supported by the data for the independent variable of employee perceptions of “affective” relative deprivation for females in the organization and for the dependent variables of “affective supervisory commitment” and “continuance supervisory commitment”. However, employees’ gender did not have a moderating effect on the relationships in the mediated model that was supported by the data. The results are discussed in terms of their theoretical and practical implications as well as the suggestions for future research.

    Effects of paternalistic and transformational leadership on follower outcomes
    (2014) Köse, Asli Göncü; Aycan, Zeynep; Johnson, Russell E.
    We investigated the motivations through which paternalistic (PL), and transformational (TL) leadership styles of managers were associated with employees’ organizational citizenship behaviors (OCB). PL is common in Eastern cultures, and may be as effective as TL, which is more common in Western cultures, to elicit positive employee outcomes such as OCB. We showed that in Turkish cultural context, both leadership styles enhanced trust in leaders, and trust, in turn, enhanced the intrinsic motivations of employees to perform OCB. PL and TL were related to OCB through different extrinsic motivations. TL increased the perception of instrumentality of OCB for leaders and for work group members which was associated with actual performance of OCB. PL enhanced employees’ motivation to manage their impression which, in turn, was positively related to their OCB.

    An Investigation of the Differences in the Dark Triad and the Big Five Personality Traits Across Majors
    (2019) Göncü Köse, Aslı; Ekren, Buse
    The Dark Triad (DT) personality traits include interrelated personality constructs which are Machiavellianism, narcissism, and psychopathy, and research has shown that individuals who are high on the DT personality traits tend to choose occupations that provide outcomes compatible with these traits. Supporting this reasoning, the DT is suggested to have impacts on major choices of university students. Previous research has also shown that the Big Five (BF) personality traits influenced educational choices. The main aim of the current study was to examine whether or not self-selection based on these personality characteristics predicted career choices. Data was collected from 659 (359 female) newly enrolled students in seven academic majors (i.e., psychology, law, economics/business, engineering, political science, medicine, and education) in Turkey. Mean scores of the groups were compared using two (gender) by seven (major) analysis of variance with the DT and BF personality traits as the dependent variables. The results revealed that Machiavellianism scores of economics/business and engineering students were significantly higher than those of psychology students. In addition, psychopathy scores of engineering, economics/business, and political science students were higher than those of psychology students. Neuroticism scores of students from psychology departments were higher than those of engineering, economics/business, and political science students. Law and education students’ neuroticism scores were also higher than those of students from engineering and economics/business departments. Finally, interaction effects of major and gender were significant for openness to experience and conscientiousness. The findings are discussed regarding theoretical and practical implications along with suggestions for future research.
