Abstract:

 Hospital employees need to have strong personal and mental ability to perform under demanding conditions, therefore their life satisfaction, psychological well-being, and self-efficacy levels are crucial to maintaining their mental health. In line with this importance the aim of the study attempts to reveal the mediator role of self-efficacy in the effect of life satisfaction on psychological well-being. A questionnaire was developed to collect the data of the study and this questionnaire was applied face-to-face to the participants. The sample of the study was selected by simple random method. The study sample consists of 424 employees working in a state hospital in a province located in the Southeastern region of Turkey. After descriptive statistics were made with the SPSS program, the hypotheses of the research were tested by using the statistical method of structural equation modeling through the LISREL program. The findings indicate that life satisfaction has a favorable impact on self-efficacy and psychological well-being. Self-efficacy similarly has a favorable impact on psychological health. Additionally, self-efficacy mediates the effect of life satisfaction on psychological well-being.

 Zorlu çalışma koşulları altında güçlü bir kişisel ve zihinsel kapasite gerektiren hastane çalışanlarının yaşam doyumu, psikolojik iyi oluş ve öz yeterlilik düzeyleri, ruh sağlıklarını korumaları açısından önem arz etmektedir. Bu önem doğrultusunda araştırmanın amacı yaşam doyumunun psikolojik iyi oluşa etkisinde öz yeterliliğin aracılık rolünü ortaya koymaktır. Araştırmanın verilerini toplamak için bir anket oluşturulmuş ve bu anket katılımcılara yüz yüze uygulanmıştır. Basit rastgele yöntemi ile araştırmanın örneklemi seçilmiştir. Araştırma örneklemini Güneydoğu bölgesinde bulunan bir ilin devlet hastanesinde çalışan 424 kişi oluşturmaktadır. SPSS programı ile tanımlayıcı istatistikler yapıldıktan sonra LISREL programı aracılığıyla yapısal eşitlik modellemesi istatistiksel yöntemi kullanılarak araştırmanın hipotezleri test edilmiştir. Elde edilen bulgulara göre, yaşam doyumu psikolojik iyi oluş ve öz yeterliliği pozitif olarak etkilemektedir. Benzer şekilde öz yeterlilik psikolojik iyi oluşu pozitif olarak etkilemektedir.
