İşyeri sapma literatürü, esas olarak örgütsel uygulamaların işyeri sapma davranışları üzerindeki etkilerine odaklanmıştır. Çalışanların bireysel özelliklerinin de işyeri sapmasına neden olabileceği göz ardı edilmiştir. Bu araştırma, çalışanların yaşam tarzlarının iş yerindeki sapkın davranışlara etkisini belirlemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Araştırmada yaşam biçimleri olarak materyalizm ve gönüllü sadelik ele alınmıştır. Araştırma, kesitsel nicel araştırma olarak tasarlanmıştır. Araştırma verileri materyalizm, gönüllü sadelik ve işyeri sapma davranışları ölçeklerinden oluşan bir anket aracılığıyla toplanmıştır. Araştırma verileri hizmet sektöründe çalışan 387 profesyonelden elde edilmiştir. Hipotezler regresyon analizi kullanılarak test edilmiştir. Araştırma bulgularına göre materyalizm işyeri sapmasını olumlu yönde etkilerken, gönüllü sadelik olumsuz yönde etkilemektedir. Bu sonuçlar, yöneticilerin işyerinde sapkın davranışları önlemek için kararlar alırken çalışanların yaşam tarzlarını da dikkate almaları gerektiğini göstermektedir.

“…Thus, they depend on owning the right possessions for happiness (Ahuvia & Wong, 2002) and consider possessions essential to their satisfaction with life and wellbeing (Go´rnik-Durose, 2020). Happiness becomes conditional to extrinsic goals and outcomes (Cui et al, 2023). Within this context, material possessions assume a symbolic role in the pursuit of success and the cultivation of a desirable image.…”

“…However, this material-centeredness can have detrimental consequences for individuals, potentially hindering their pursuit of personal growth, meaningful relationships, and a broader commitment to societal well-being, as highlighted by Isham et al (2022). Substantial evidence shows that people who give precedence to material goals have lower-quality interpersonal relationships, behave in antisocial and competitive ways, incur more debt, and engage in unethical and unhealthy behaviors like smoking, alcohol consumption, and drug use (Cui et al, 2023; Duriez et al, 2007; Kasser, 2016; Sheldon et al, 2018; Vohs et al, 2006). Ecological sustainability and pro-environmental behaviors have also been found to be inversely related to materialism.…”

The current study investigates the effects of work centrality and materialistic values on organizational citizenship behaviors (OCBs). The importance of organizational citizenship behaviors has been well documented in the management literature. Although OCBs are hard to define, researchers emphasize that these behaviors are more or less discretionary, less likely to be formally linked with organizational rewards and contribute to the organization by promoting a positive social and psychological climate. Although the accumulation of research on OCBs and related constructs is vast, materialistic values as an antecedent have received scant attention. In the current study, materialistic values and work centrality are investigated as predictors of OCB, which have inverse effects on the construct. In a cross-sectional design, 439 employees from various companies in Turkey participated in an online survey. The findings support the claim that inverse effects from work centrality and materialistic values influenced OCB. Upon deconstructing the antecedents’ impact on the dimensions of OCB, the results revealed a positive predictive effect of work centrality on helping and civic virtue. In contrast, materialistic values exerted a negative influence only on helping behaviors. Implications and future research directions are discussed in line with the findings.
