Özet:

Purpose - This research was carried out with the aim of identifying the impact of psychological capital on individual performance and the role of mediation between these two variables of individual-organic harmony. Method - The sample of the research was made by 433 academic staff working at the founding universities in Turkey. The survey form was sent by mail and through the online survey system. Structural equality modeling has been used on the obtained data with frequency analysis, reliability analysis, correlation analysis, detection and verifying factor analysis. The findings - The research results have shown that psychological capital has a positive relationship with individual-organism consistency and individual performance. However, the main hypothesis of the research, which is defined as the relationship between psychological capital and individual performance, has not supported the mediation role of individual-organic harmony. Discussions - According to these findings, a person with a high psychological capital becomes a tendency to obtain positive outcomes and increases the desire to work, which leads to a higher performance during the process. In addition, as a result of the individual with a high psychological capital’s identification with the organization he works and increased compliance with his work, the overall level of success and efficiency of the organization increases. As a result of the increased performance of the individual identified with the goals and values of the organization, the level of achieving personal and organizational goals also increases. It is estimated that this research will contribute to the study on academics at the foundation universities and will give researchers and practitioners an opinion on psychological capital, individual performance and the levels of individual-organic conformity.
