Data were collected from 256 Turkish teachers using validated scales for organizational commitment, career adaptability, loneliness at work, burnout, and job satisfaction. Structural equation modeling with a two-stage approach was applied to test the proposed mediation pathways.

The analysis was conducted with 256 Turkish teachers. Data were collected with the Organızatıonal Commıtment Scale, Career Adaptabilities Scale, Loneliness at Work Scale, Burnout Measure, and Job Satisfaction Scale. Data were analyzed with a two-stage structural equation modeling technique. According to the research findings, it has been proven that the mediatory effects of loneliness at work and burnout are significant in the relationship between career adaptability, organizational commitment and job satisfaction. In conclusion the research findings were confirmed by the Dual-Factor Theory. In future studies, dual-factor theory can be tested with a longitudinal analysis based on time interval measurements.  \nKeywords: career adaptability, job satisfaction, loneliness at work, organizational commitment, burnout, teachers, dual-factor theory  \nINTRODUCTION  \nJob satisfaction is an evaluation indicator that explains an individual's general situation, work environment, and attitude toward their professional experience (Saputra & Mahaputra, 2022) . Organizational commitment is a concept that expresses the desire of the individual to believe in organizational goals, accept these goals, and stay in the organization (Castellano et al., 2021) . Career adaptability is defined as the ability of an individual to cope with the changes and transitions in the career development process, from preparation for career and profession to career termination (Eryılmaz & Kara, 2018; Kara, 2024; Savickas & Profeli 2012) . Loneliness at work is expressed as a negative emotion experienced in the workplace, which makes it increasingly difficult for the individual to establish genuine social relationships due to increasing competition or various complicated relationships at work (Jung et al., 2021) . Burnout is not a personal problem that may be a subject for self-help but an individual reaction to job stress that occurs as a result of specific characteristics of work activity and can eventually become chronic and cause mental, emotional, and physical complications (Edu-Valsania et al., 2022) .  \nCitation: Kara, A., Kayışdağ, E., & Bek, H.

For example, a survey conducted by Loan (2020) found that organizational commitment is a variable that predicts job satisfaction. In another study, it was seen that organizational commitment significantly positively impacts job satisfaction (Amin, 2022) . In another study conducted by Azeem (2014), it was determined that employees with high organizational commitment have higher job satisfaction. In summary, based on the studies mentioned above, it has been accepted in the current research that organizational commi","cbCaigqGWftcyuXH","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaigqGWftcyuXH","pdf",492778,18,"English","# INTRODUCTION\n# Hypothesis Development and Conceptual Framework\n## Relationships between Organizational Commitment and Job Satisfaction\n## Relationships between Career Adaptability and Job Satisfaction\n## Relationships between Loneliness at Work and Job Satisfaction","[{\"question\":\"What is the main purpose of the research?\",\"answer\":\"The research examines the mediating roles of loneliness at work and burnout in the relationship between career adaptability, organizational commitment, and job satisfaction.\"},{\"question\":\"How were the data collected and analyzed?\",\"answer\":\"The study used scales for organizational commitment, career adaptability, loneliness at work, burnout, and job satisfaction with 256 Turkish teachers, and applied a two-stage structural equation modeling technique.\"},{\"question\":\"What do the research findings indicate about the mediation effects?\",\"answer\":\"The mediating effects of loneliness at work and burnout are significant between career adaptability, organizational commitment, and job satisfaction, aligning with the Dual-Factor Theory.\"},{\"question\":\"What direction do future studies suggest?\",\"answer\":\"Future studies can test Dual-Factor Theory through longitudinal analysis based on time-interval measurements.\"}]","Relationships between career adaptability, organizational commitment, loneliness at work, burnout, and job satisfaction - research | PDF",1792073807,45]
