EXAMINATION OF THE EFFECT OF TEXTILE WORKERS' CULTURAL ATTITUDES ON MOTIVATION AND BURNOUT LEVELS IN BURSA PROVINCE


Abstract
The notion, which is dealt with in the adapting to culture, comprises the continuous interaction between one or more groups which subsequently evolved in the original culture and the modifications and consequences of people from other cultures who continue their interactions with each other. Acculturation is the change that occurs in the culture of a group and it also creates a change in the psychology of the individual. Acculturation is one of the most complex areas of cross-cultural psychology. The transition in the acculturation process is not always easy. In this process, the individual may experience psychological problems. The concepts of motivation and burnout constitute two main possible outcomes. One of the most important issues in business life is the motivation of employees. Motivation greatly affects the performance of both the organization and the employee. Burnout can be seen as a result of long-term stress that may develop in relation to work and professional life, and there are certain occupational groups that frequently experience this situation. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of cultural attitudes of textile workers who live in intense working hours and have difficult working conditions on motivation and burnout levels in Bursa. A major difference was achieved for the assimilation sub-dimension as a consequence of the difference analysis. The attitude of assimilation among East workers was greater. The correlation analysis has a favorable and substantial effect on burnout as well as assimilation, separation and marginalization. On the other hand, motivation is not strongly linked. Sub-dimensional integration does not mean that motivation and fatigue are strongly linked.
