“…For instance, Meriac et al (2015) found a negative correlation between grit and job stress among employed university students. Using structural equation modeling, Özhan and Boyacı (2018) showed a negative relationship between grit and stress among Turkish university students. Similarly, in a study of foreign university students in the Philippines, San Juan and Bance (2019) found a strong negative correlation between students' grit and acculturative stress.…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the relationships between grit, unethical behavior and job stress among business-to-business salespeople. Design/methodology/approach The empirical analysis includes 240 business-to-business salespeople. Structural equation modeling is used to test the study’s hypotheses. Findings Results suggest grit is directly related to less frequent unethical behavior and customer-directed deviance. Neutralization techniques positively moderate the relationship between salesperson grit and both unethical behavior and customer-directed deviance. Grit is indirectly related to job stress through the positive relationship between unethical behavior and job stress. Research limitations/implications Given research on grit in sales is relatively new several opportunities to pursue additional research in this area are presented. Practical implications Sales leaders may benefit from administering the salesperson grit scale as part of the screening process and developing grit among salespeople through training and coaching. Sales leaders should emphasize the negative impact of adopting neutralization techniques (excuses) in condoning unethical behaviors. The indirect effect of grit in reducing job stress through ethical behaviors underscores potential ways to mitigate costly and detrimental sales outcome losses. Originality/value This study develops a novel framework to explore the relationships between grit and unethical behaviors as moderated by neutralization techniques (excuses); examines an additional component of grit not previously considered in some studies of salespeople; and investigates whether these relationships increase a previously unexplored outcome – job stress.

“…Hasil analisis hipotesis ketiga yaitu hubungan antara grit dengan kecemasan menghadapi dunia kerja pada mahasiswa tingkat akhir Psikologi UNS yang juga diuji menggunakan uji korelasi parsial, memperlihatkan hasil berupa nilai signifikansi sebesar 0,318 Pengujian hipotesis ketiga ini memberikan hasil yang berbeda dengan penelitian dari Ozhan & Boyaci (2018), dimana dalam penelitian sebelumnya menunjukkan hubungan negate yang signifikan terjadi antara variabel grit dengan kecemasan menghadapi dunia kerja dengan nilai korelasi sebesar -0,28. Salah satu faktor yang mempengaruhi hasil ini adalah usia (Chang, 2014).…”

Salah satu tujuan mahasiswa setelah lulus kuliah adalah bekerja. Persaingan dalam mencari kerja dapat menimbulkan kecemasan bagi mahasiswa. Untuk itu diperlukan upaya untuk menurunkan rasa cemas yang dialami mahasiswa dengan regulasi diri dan grit. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui hubungan regulasi diri dan grit dengan kecemasan menghadapi dunia kerja pada mahasiswa tingkat akhir Jumlah sampel pada penelitian ini sebanyak 80 mahasiswa tingkat akhir Psikologi UNS yang terdiri angkatan 2015-2017 dengan teknik pengambilan sampel proportioned stratified random sampling. Instrument dalam penelitian ini adalah skala kecemasan menghadapi dunia kerja (α=0,922), skala regulasi diri (α=0,879), dan skala grit (α=0,899). Hasil analisis regresi linier berganda menunjukkan nilai p=0,000 (p < 0,05) dengan nilai Fhitung=16,705 > Ftabel=3,12 dan nilai R=0,550 yang berarti secara bersama-sama (simultan) berhubungan dengan kecemasan menghadapi dunia kerja pada mahasiswa tingkat akhir dengan tingkat sedang. Hasil analisis korelasi parsial menunjukkan terdapat hubungan negatif signifikan antara regulasi diri dengan kecemasan menghadapi dunia kerja (p=0,005 < 0,05; r=0,312) dan tidak terdapat hubungan yang signifikan antara grit dengan kecemasan menghadapi dunia kerja (p=0,318 > 0,05; r=-0,114).

“…In a similar study, (Sarıçam et al, 2016) a significant correlation was found between grit and motivational determination. In another study conducted by Özhan and Boyacı (2018), the authors found a negative correlation between grit and psychological symptoms which consists of depression, anxiety, and stress; the authors stated that programs to strengthen grit can be used in the prevention of psychological symptoms. In addition to studies mentioned above, it was determined that grit (Rojas et al, 2012) and academic achievement (Yılmaz, et al, 2007) were related to self-efficacy.…”

“…Many reports indicated that grit is related to academic performance (Christopoulou, et al, 2018;Pate et al, 2017). Furthermore, grit is an important factor in achieving success and progressing towards goals and it also helps get rid of negative emotions such as hopelessness (Özhan & Boyacı, 2018). Although grit is sometimes used to mean concepts of determination and persistence, they are not the same (Duckworth et al, 2007;Shechtman et al, 2013).…”

This study aimed to adapt the Triarchic Model of Grit Scale (TMGS) and Perceived Academic Underachievement Scale (PAUS) to a Turkish state university context and provide evidence of its validity.. The relationships between the scales were also examined. The data of this study was obtained from three different study groups consisting of college students attending a state university located in the Middle Black Sea Region of Turkey. The psychometric properties of the PAUS were examined with the first study group, the psychometric properties of the TMGS were examined with the second study group, and the relationships between both scales and their relations to academic self-efficacy were examined with the third study group. Exploratory Factor Analysis, Confirmatory Factor Analysis, and Pearson's product-moment correlation coefficient were used to analyze data. Results showed that both scales have sufficient validity and reliability. Furthermore, there was a negative relationship between grit and perceived underachievement, a positive relationship between grit and academic self-efficacy, and a negative relationship between perceived underachievement and academic self-efficacy. These findings suggest that adapted scales are valid and reliable measurement tools that can be used to determine perceived academic underachievement and grit levels among adults and teacher candidates.
