摘要：AbstractThe concept of ownership which has been the focus of attention by scholars and business managers has three different dimensions. These are legal-economic, psychological and social ownership. This research is mainly concerned with psychological ownership that can be stated as a question “How much do I feel this organization is mine?” This can be the most congenial for family and paradoxically the most repellent question for non-family members in a family business. In family businesses, there are two different groups as the family members and the non-family members. In order to develop a sense of psychological ownership in family enterprises, managers should uphold justice between family members and non-family members. Therefore, this study examines the relation between organizational justice and psychological ownership within a family business. To fulfill this purpose, we studied a large scale ceramic company employing 70 white collar employees in the Turkey. The main hypothesis of the study - that “Organizational justice perceptions of non-family employees are positively related to their psychological ownership toward the family business”- seems valid from the results obtained. Furthermore it has been concluded that there is a significant relationship between organizational justice and psychological ownership.
