Özet:

 The general purpose of this study is to determine whether benign envy and malicious envy have an effect on subjective well-being. In addition, it is aimed to investigate whether demographic characteristics and employment status in public and private institutions will make a difference in the variables. Therefore, the study was designed using a relational and interactional model. The studys theoretical foundations are based on oedomanic and hedonic cycle theory, multilateral mismatch theory, adaptation level theory, ecological theory, social comparison theory, and equity theory. The data from 1,465 teachers working in public and private schools in Osmaniye, Hatay, and Adana provinces were analyzed with the SPSS 27 program. The findings indicate a high positive relationship between benign envy and malicious envy, and a moderate positive relationship between commitment and competence, which constitute subjective well-being. However, there is no interaction between benign envy and malicious envy and subjective well-being. There is no emotional difference between working in public and governmental organizations. Some demographic characteristics may reveal significant differences between benign envy and malicious envy and subjective well-being. While some of the data obtained supports the results indicated by previous literature studies, some reveal a contrary finding.

 Bu çalışmanın genel amacı haset ve gıpta duygularının öznel iyi oluş üzerinde etkisinin olup olmadığını belirlemektir. Ayrıca değişkenler üzerinde demografik özellikler ile kamu ve özel kurumlarda çalışma durumunun farklılık arz edip etmeyeceğinin araştırılması amaçlanmaktadır. Bu nedenle çalışma ilişkisel ve etkileşimsel model üzerine tasarlanmıştır. Araştrımanın teorik temelleri, ödomanik ve hedonik döngü kuramı, çok yönlü uyuşmazlık kuramı, uyum düzeyi kuramı, ekolojik kuram, sosyal karşılaştırma teorisi ve eşitlik kuramı gibi kuramlara dayandırılmıştır. Araştırma kısmında Osmaniye, Hatay ve Adana illerindeki resmi ve özel okullarda görev yapan 1.465 öğretmenden elde edilen veriler SPSS 27programı ile analiz edilmiştir. Bulgular, haset ve gıpta duygusu arasında yüksek düzeyde pozitif yönlü bir ilişki olduğunu, öznel iyi oluşu oluşturan bağlılık ve yetkinlik arasında orta düzeyde pozitif yönlü bir ilişki olduğunu işaret etmektedir. Ancak gıpta ve haset duyguları ile öznel iyi oluş hali arasında etkileşim söz konusu değildir. Kamu ve resmi kurumlarda çalışma yönünde duygusal bir farklılık söz konusu değildir. Bazı demografik özellikler ise haset ve gıpta ile öznel iyi oluş üzerinde anlamlı farklılıklar ortaya çıkarabilmektedir. Elde edilen verilerin bir kısmı alan yazında daha önce yapılmış çalışmaların işaret ettiği sonuçları desteklerken bir kısmı tersine bir bulgu ortaya koymaktadır.
