Özet:

The aim of this study is to determine whether work-family conflict plays a mediating role in the effect of workaholism on burnout. A questionnaire form was used to obtain the data used in the research. The questionnaires were sent to the academicians via e-mail, and 402 usable questionnaires were obtained. In the preparation of the questionnaire form, scales that have been proven to be reliable and valid in the literature and Turkish adaptation studies have been made have been used. In the study, the short form of the DUWAS Workaholism Scale developed by Del Líbano et al. (2010) and adapted into Turkish by Doğan and Tel (2011), was used to scale the degree of workaholism. The scale developed by Netemeyer, et al. (1996) and adapted into Turkish by Efeoğlu and Özgen (2007) was used to determine the level of work-family conflict perceived by the participants. In order to determine the occupational burnout levels of the participants, the “Burnout Scale” developed by Kristensen et al. (2005) and adapted into Turkish by Deliorman Bakoğlu et al. (2009) was used. The four-stage regression model proposed by Baron and Kenny (1986) was used to test the hypotheses. As a result of the correlation analysis, positive and significant relationships were found between workaholism and work-family conflict at the level of ,449, between workaholism and burnout at the level of ,468, and between work-family conflict and burnout at the level of ,500. In order to determine the mediation relationship, the changes in the regression coefficients between the workaholism and burnout variables in the H1 and H4 Hypotheses were examined. It is seen that the beta coefficient (.516), which was significant in the first model, decreased (.337) in the fourth model. Based on this result, it was determined that work-family conflict played a partial mediating role in the effect of workaholism on burnout.
