Abstract

The purpose of the study is to investigate the relationships between agentic and communal values, job related affective well-being, and political deviance. An empirical study was performed in Turkey among the health care staff working in five health care organizations. The findings supported the reasoning of the study: Positive associations of communal values with job related affective well-being and agentic values with political deviance were found. In addition, negative association between communal values and political deviance was reported. In contrast to the suggestions of this study, a positive association between agentic values and affective wellbeing was found. The research results were evaluated with their conceptual implications.
