Özet:

 Job search behavior, a key determinant of employment, broadly refers to the effort to explore existing job opportunities. It is widely recognized that this process, characterized by high uncertainty, is influenced by personality traits. One such trait is intolerance of uncertainty, which reflects individuals cognitive, emotional, and behavioral responses to ambiguous situations. This study investigates the hypothesized negative impact of intolerance of uncertainty on job search behavior. A survey was conducted among individuals aged 1529 residing in Istanbul who were actively seeking employment, regardless of their current work status. Regression analysis was employed to examine the effect of intolerance of uncertainty on job search behavior, while ANOVA tests were used to assess whether these variables differed across demographic groups. Contrary to expectations, the findings revealed no significant relationship between intolerance of uncertainty and job search behavior, suggesting that this personality trait does not influence job-seeking activity. However, the results indicated that both intolerance of uncertainty and job search behavior vary significantly according to demographic variables.

 İş bulmanın temel belirleyicisi olan iş arama davranışı en genel ifadeyle, var olan istihdam olanaklarının araştırılmasıdır. Büyük bir belirsizlik içeren iş arama sürecinin kişilik değişkenlerinden etkilendiği bilinmektedir. Çalışmada iş arama davranışına etkisi incelenen belirsizliğe tahammülsüzlük ise belirsiz durumlar karşısında bireylerin bilişsel, duygusal ve davranışsal tepkilerine işaret eden bir kişilik değişkeni olarak tanımlanmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, belirsizliğe tahammülsüzlük durumunun iş arama davranışı üzerinde olumsuz bir etki yaratacağı hipotezinden hareketle bir anket çalışması yapılmıştır. Araştırmanın örneklemini İstanbul ilinde ikamet edip, 15-29 yaş grubunda olan çalışıp çalışmama durumu fark etmeksizin iş arayan bireyler oluşturmuştur. Çalışmada belirsizliğe tahammülsüzlüğün iş arama davranışı üzerindeki etkisini test etmek amacıyla regresyon analizi ve belirsizliğe tahammülsüzlük ve iş arama davranışının demografik değişkenlere göre farklılaşıp farklılaşmadığını belirlemek üzere ANOVA analizleri gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışma sonunda beklenildiğinin aksine belirsizliğe tahammülsüzlük ile iş arama davranışı arasında anlamlı bir ilişki bulunmadığı, yani belirsizliğe tahammülsüzlüğün iş arama davranışını etkilemediği görülmüştür. Çalışmanın bir diğer sonucuna göre hem belirsizliğe tahammülsüzlük hem de iş arama davranışı demografik değişkenlere göre farklılaşmaktadır.
