An Empirical Study on The Effect of The Groupthink on Silence in Organizations

Abstract

Araştırma, bir otomotiv firmasında grup düşünüşün, sessizliğe etkisini ortaya koyma amacıyla yapılmıştır. Araştırmanın sorunsalının grup düşünüş ile sessizlik etkileşimi üzerine kurgulanması, iş görenlerin iş arkadaşlarından destek bulmadıkça ses çıkartmayacakları ve yanlış bile olsa genellikle çoğunluk ile aynı fikirde olmaya gayret etmeye meyilli olmalarından kaynaklanmaktadır. Grup Düşünüş semptomları; “tehlikeye açık olunmadığı illüzyonu, grubun ahlaki değerlere sahip oldukları inancı, kolektif rasyonalizasyon, grupların basmakalıpları, kendini denetleme, görüş birliği illüzyonu, muhaliflerin üzerine doğrudan baskı ve kendini akıl koruyucuları tayin edenler“i içermektedir, sessizlik ise tek boyutta incelenmiştir. Araştırmanın örneklemini, özel sektör çalışanlarından oluşan 96 kişi oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmada verilerinin değerlendirilmesi adına tanımlayıcı istatistiksel metodlar, normal dağılım için Kolmogorov Smirnov testi, değişkenler arası ilişki için Pearson Korelasyon ve Grup Düşünüşün Sessizliğe etkisini ölçmek için ise Regresyon analizi yapılmıştır. Araştırmanın bulgularına göre; kendini denetleme, sessizliği artırmaktadır ve grup düşünüş ve semptomları, bazı demografik özelliklere göre farklılık arz etmektedir

The present study has been conducted in order to reveal the influence of groupthink on silence in a automotive company. That the problematique of the study has been constructed on the interaction between groupthink and silence derives from the fact that workers will not tend to raise objections unless they find support from colleagues (and that they often endeavor to affirm the majority opinion, even if it is wrong). The symptom of Groupthink includes illusion of invulnerability, belief in inherent morality of the group, collective rationalization, stereotypes of out-groups, selfcensorship, illusion of unanimity, direct pressure on dissenters and self-appointed mindguards and silence has been investigated in one dimension. The sample of the study consists of 96 employees who work in private sector. In analyzing process of the data, techniques of descriptive statistics, test of Kolmogorov Simirnov for normal distribution, Pearson corelation for the correlation between parameters and regretion analysis was used for the effect of groupthink over silence. The findings of the study proved that the self-censorship increases the silence and groupthink and its sympthoms may differ according to some demographical qualities
