Administrators, in general, are at greater risk of facing anxiety than are other people, due to their duties and responsibilities. In this study, both state and trait anxiety levels of college administrators were assessed and the administrators were compared based on their anxiety levels. For the purpose of assessing state and trait anxiety levels, the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) (Spielberger, Gorsuch, & Lushene, 1970) adapted to Turkish by LeCompte and Oner (1975) was used. The sample of the study included 72 college administrators who were working in Turkish state and private universities in different regions of the country. Results showed significant correlation between the state and trait anxiety levels. No significant difference was found based on gender, age, administrative level, or tenure. However, the direction of the differences was similar to those of the previous studies. Results are discussed and suggestions are given.

An integrative model of transformational leadership, organizational commitment, job satisfaction and organizational citizenship behavior
Küçükbayrak, Ruken; Acar, Feride Pınar; Department of Business Administration (2010)
Existing literature indicates that transformational leadership, job satisfaction, organizational commitment, and organizational citizenship behavior are very important for effective organizational functioning. Previous research on citizenship behaviors made limited contribution to the literature, since it mainly did not consider the relationships between transformational leadership and organizational citizenship behaviors together with the influences of job satisfaction and organizational commitment. This s...
A self-presentational approach to transmission of good and bad news
Uysal, AHMET; Öner Özkan, Bengi (Scientific Journal Publishers Ltd, 2007-01-01)
People are reluctant to transmit bad news, a tendency named as the MUM effect. One explanation of this effect suggests that people do not want to construct negative impressions by being associated with bad news. In this study, transmission of good and bad news was examined from an impression management perspective. University students (N = 275) participated in a scenario study, with the valence of the news (good/bad) and outcome dependence on the recipient (high/low) as independent variables and transmissio...

Direct and indirect effects of social support on psychological well-being
Gençöz, Tülin (Scientific Journal Publishers Ltd, 2004-01-01)
The aim of this study was to investigate the direct and indirect effects of social support on psychological well-being. Social support was evaluated under two different categories which were named as Aid-Related and Appreciation-Related Social Support. The first category was more related to potential for receiving help from others when needed, and being cared for by others, while the latter category was more related to being recognized by others as an efficient source of help and reassurance of worth. Under...
