“…Isolation, the third additional barrier was similarly consistent with Powell's ( 1994) definition of the same term which is the sense that each individual struggles alone and that no sense of community exists. Selfestrangement seemed to be consistent with Seeman's ( 1972) definition which is being something less than one might be if the circumstances in society were different.…”

Declining referrals from local Ministry for Children and Families (MCF) child protection social workers threaten the viability of the multidisciplinary approach to child maltreatment operating out of the Northern Child and Family Clinic (the Clinic) in Prince George, British Columbia. This exploratory study used grounded theory methodology to discover and describe the incentives and barriers to referrals for local MCF child protection social workers. In-depth open ended personal interviews were conducted with six local MCF child protection social workers who had used the Clinic at least once. The findings of this study suggest that local MCF child protection social workers would value and use a multidisciplinary approach that has specific characteristics.However, additional findings indicate that the design of the approach in use at the Clinic contradicts what child protection social workers need to do their job and relates to alienation and non-utilization of Clinic services. The findings that emerged from this study are used to develop recommendations about the multidisciplinary model used at the Clinic.

ÖzBu çalışmanın amacı örgütsel muhalefet ve işe yabancılaşmanın öğretim elemanlarının duygusal tükenmişlik seviyelerine etkilerini belirlemektir. Bu amaçla 11 farklı devlet üniversitesinde görev yapmakta olan 255 kişilik bir örneklem üzerinde anket uygulaması yapılmıştır. Elde edilen veriler güvenirlik analizi, açımlayıcı faktör analizi, korelasyon ve regresyon analizleri ile incelenmiştir. Aynı zamanda hipotezlerin test edilmesinde ANFIS model kullanılmış ve sonuçlar regresyon analizi ile karşılaştırılarak en iyi model belirlenmeye çalışılmıştır. Araştırmadan elde edilen bulgulara göre örgütsel muhalefetin yatay ve dikey muhalefet boyutu işe yabancılaşmanın güçsüzleşme boyutunu olumsuz yönde etkilemektedir. Aynı şekilde dikey muhalefet işe yabancılaşmanın anlamsızlaşma ve kendine yabancılaşma boyutlarını olumsuz yönde etkilemektedir. Yatay muhalefet ise anlamsızlaşma ve kendine yabancılaşma boyutlarını olumlu yönde etkilemektedir. Diğer taraftan işe yabancılaşmanın güçsüzleşme, anlamsızlaşma ve kendine yabancılaşmadan oluşan tüm boyutları öğretim elemanlarının duygusal tükenmişliklerini pozitif yönde etkilemektedir.Anahtar Kelimeler: Örgütsel muhalefet, İşe Yabancılaşma, Duygusal Tükenmişlik, Öğretim Elemanları, ANFIS Model. AbstractThe aim of this study is to investigate the effect of organizational dissent and work alienation on emotional burnout of academicians. For this purpose, a survey was conducted on a sample consisting of 255 employees working in 11 different public universities. The data were analyzed with reliability analysis, exploratory factor analysis, correlation analysis and regression analysis. Besides, ANFIS model was used to test research hypotheses and it was tried to determine the best model by comparing the results with regression analysis. According to the results, articulated dissent and lateral dissent dimensions of organizational dissent negatively affect powerlessness dimension of work alienation. Likewise, articulated dissent negatively affects meaninglessness and selfestrangement dimensions of work alienation. Lateral dissent, on the other hand, positively affects meaninglessness and selfestrangement dimensions of work alienation. Moreover, all dimensions of work alienation which are powerlessness, meaninglessness and self-estrangement have positive effects on academicians' emotional burnout.

“…Employee's work alienation affects job attitude mainly reflected in the job burnout (Powell, 1994) [27], job satisfaction, organizational commitment (Hirschfeld, Field and Bedeian, 2000) [28], job engagement (ArmstrongStassen, 2006) [29] and so on. And such aspects as job burnout, job satisfaction, organizational commitment and work engagement will influence job performance significantly (Salanova, Agut and Peiro, 2005) [30].…”

When the new career, the feature of which was boundaryless career attitudes, organizational mobility preference, self-directed and values-drive had appeared in employees, the new subject of the current academic and organizational practices faced was what actions the leader should take to guide the behavior of employees effectively, even to improve job performance. On the basis of reviewing the existing literature, a theoretical framework of leadership task behavior and relational behavior, work alienation and job performance had been proposed in this study by using leadership behavior theory. Questionnaire data were collected from employees by paired data and analysis data using SPSS17.0 LISREL8.7. Regression analyses revealed insignificant relationships between the leadership task behavior, relational behavior, and job performance, and work alienation partially mediated this relationship. This study not only enriches the theory of leadership behavior, but also has a guide and reference for the leadership and management practices of enterprises.
