Quota sampling method was used to determine the sample. 439 questionnaires were taken into consideration and the questionnaire was delivered face to face during the application. Personal Information Form, Innovative Work Behavior Scale, General Self-Efficacy Scale and Locus of Control Scale were used for data collection. Responses were analyzed by a ready-to-use statistical package program. Multiple linear regression analysis was performed to confirm the research hypothesis. In order to answer the research questions, t-test and ANOVA test were used for unrelated samples according to the demographic and work-related characteristics of the participants. The findings of the study are presented in three headings as demographic findings, factor analysis findings and findings related to the test of hypotheses. As a result of the research, it has been found that self-efficacy and internal control focus affect the innovative work behavior significantly and positively.
