Abstract:

The main objective of this study is to identify the role of depression in the interaction between the personality characteristics of five factors and work satisfaction. The research on the role of depression in the interaction between the personality characteristics of five factors and job satisfaction has been conducted towards blue and white captive employers working in various sectors operating in the province of Istanbul. Of the 523 volunteers obtained data, 23 of the final data are hosted, and the analysis has been carried out through 500 current surveys. The results of the analysis found that there was a positive meaningful relationship between depression and neuroticism. Depression has been found to have a negative relationship with both subdimensions of work satisfaction, work satisfaction with externality, openness to development, and responsibility/responsibility with the characteristics of positive. The hierarchical multi-regression analysis found that the influence of five-factor personality characteristics on job satisfaction was a partial mediation effect of depression. The results of the differential analysis have found that depression increases with age, age increases, salary and education levels decreases. As the level of education increases, it is found that the employers are open to development and outward, they show more responsibility/responsibility. Also, responsibility/responsibility characteristics are seen in the employers who work as women and white captives most. As the salary received increases, it is found that the employers are more open to outward and development. As the salary and education levels decrease, neurothyroidism has increased.  The level of education and wages are high, relatively younger, and the job satisfaction of the white captive workers between the ages of 26 and 35 is higher.
