摘要:The aim of this study is to examine the effect of psychological capital and personality on organizational commitment. Furthermore, it was also aimed to examine the relationships between these two concepts because there is a small number of studies that reveal the relationships between psychological capital and personality characteristics. In this context, a full count was performed in a manufacturing enterprise, and the questionnaire study was conducted on a total of 217 people including all white and blue-collar employees. All employees were reached by face to face interviews. The collected data were analyzed by SPSS 21 and Lisrel 8.51. The results of the study show that psychological capital positively affects affective, continuance and normative commitments. Similarly, personality characteristics also have a significant effect on organizational commitment. Extraversion, conscientiousness, agreeableness and openness to experience among personality characteristics positively affect the organizational commitment. It was observed that neuroticism had a positive effect on organizational commitment, contrary to expectations. The relationships between the relevant two concepts affecting organizational commitment were also found significant. A positive relationship was found between psychological capital and conscientiousness, agreeableness and openness to experience while a negative and significant relationship was found between psychological capital and neuroticism. Contrary to expectations, a negative and significant relationship was achieved between psychological capital and extraversion.
