dc.description.abstractPrevious studies on Social Value Orientation (SVO) have identified certain predictors of the concept such as personality traits, values and experiences. Since motivation to achieve power and Dark Triad constructs share common predictors with SVO, a natural link between them is assumed. Although SVO, power and Dark Triad are theoretically aligned, research integrating all of them is scarce. Hence, first purpose of this study is to examine the effects of motivation to achieve power on SVO and second purpose is to examine the effects of Dark Triad on motivation to achieve power. Data for the research is collected from white collar employees of the companies operating in Turkiye with an online survey using convenience method for sampling. CFA is performed to confirm the scales and examine their factor structures. The goodness of fit indices indicated an acceptable model fit. Path analysis is performed to examine the hypothesized structural model for effects of dark triad on motivation to achieve power. Results indicated narcissism has a significant and positive effect, Machiavellianism has a significant and negative effect on motivation to achieve power. On the other hand, psychopathy is not found to have a significant effect on motivation to achieve power. Logistic regression analysis is conducted to examine if motivation to achieve power effect likelihood of occurring different types of social value orientation. Results suggested otherwise. Overall, this study contributes to the literature by examining interrelations between SVO, Dark Triad and power using a sample from Türkiye. Results highlights the effects of Dark Triad on motivation to achieve power. However, absence of the effect of power concept on SVO calls for further research.en_US
