Özet:

 


Purpose- This study aims to investigate the effects of
impulsivity on sabotage behaviors of sales employees and the mediating roles of
affective disorders and organizational based self-esteem.


Methodology- For the purpose of the research, the data
which were collected from 198 sales employees from shopping stores by the
survey method were analyzed by using partial
least squares–structural equation modeling method. While conducting analysis,
Smart PLS program was used by applying bootstrapping technique (5000 resample)
to determine the significance levels of the proposed hypotheses and also Anderson and Gerbing (1988) two-step approach has been used.


Findings- The results revealed that impulsivity has a positive and
significant effect on affective disorder levels of employees and also
impulsivity has a positive and significant effect on sabotage behavior levels of employees. However, research results indicate that impulsivity has a
negative and significant effect on organization based self-esteem levels of
employees and organization based self-esteem has a negative and significant
effect on sabotage behavior levels of employees. In addition, it is found out organization
based self-esteem has partially mediating role in the relationship between
impulsivity and sabotage behaviors. 







Conclusion-
The study demonstrate that personality traits
are one of the significant predictors of the maladaptive behaviors and
psychological health problems in the service industry. However, this study
reveals that in order to eliminating negative attitudes in the workplaces, organizations
need to consider dispositional characteristics of the employees.
