Bu çalışmada, örgüt iklimi ve pozitif psikolojik sermayenin etik davranışlar üzerindeki etkisinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Literatürdeki çalışmalarda işgörenler tarafından algılanan örgüt ikliminin bireysel (yaş, eğitim düzeyi, çalışma arzusuna sahip olma vb.) ve örgütsel(örgütün amaçları, örgütsel yapı, örgütsel çevre, örgütsel değerler ve normlar vb.) olarak birçok faktör tarafından etkilendiği gözlemlenmiştir. Bu etkilenme doğrultusunda işgörenler tarafından algılanan örgüt ikliminin etik davranış sergilemesine etkisinin olduğu düşünülmektedir. Bununla beraber, bireyin yaşadığı olaylara iyimser bakışı, geleceğe yönelik umut duyması, kendi yeteneklerine olan güveni ve zorluklarla baş etme iradesinin etik davranışta bulunması konusunda pozitif bir etki yaratabileceği düşünülmektedir. Bu doğrultuda çalışmada, örgüt iklimi algısının ve bireyin sahip olduğu pozitif psikolojik sermaye düzeyi etik davranışlar sergileme özelliklerinin üzerindeki etkisi ele alınmıştır. Araştırma amacı doğrultusunda bir devlet hastanesinin 250 çalışanından anket tekniği ile veriler toplanmıştır. Elde edilen veriler, açıklayıcı ve doğrulayıcı faktör analizleri, korelasyon analizi, hiyerarşik regresyon analizi vasıtasıyla değerlendirilmiştir. Araştırma bulgularına göre, örgüt iklimi ve pozitif psikolojik sermayenin etik davranışlar üzerinde etkisi olduğu belirlenmiştir.
