چکیده
ادغام از مهمترین تغییراتی است که سازمانها تجربه میکنند. این تغییر میتواند بر سایر متغیرهای مهم در سازمان اثر گذارد. هدف از انجام این پژوهش، مطالعه تأثیر ادغام سازمانها بر مشروعیت سازمانی و هویت یابی کارکنان با سازمان در کارکنان وزارت تعاون، کار و رفاه اجتماعی است. در این راستا تغییرات متغیرهای هویت یابی کارکنان با سازمان و مشروعیت سازمان، پیش و پس از ادغام مورد سنجش قرار گرفت. در این پژوهش، علاوه بر تأثیر ادغام بر مشروعیت سازمان و هویت یابی کارکنان با سازمان، تأثیر آن بر ادراک هویت دوجنبهای، هویت خنثی و عدم احراز هویت با سازمان نیز بررسی شد. بعلاوه تأثیر مشروعیت سازمانی بر هویت یابی کارکنان با سازمان و هر یک از حالتهای نام برده مدل بسط یافته در مرحله پس از ادغام بررسی شد و در نهایت راهکارهایی جهت افزایش هویت و مشروعیت کارکنان در یک سازمان ادغام شده، ارائه شده است. نتایج حاصل از پژوهش نشان میدهد که در این وزارتخانه، مشروعیت سازمان و هویت یابی کارکنان با سازمان پس از ادغام در مقایسه با قبل از ادغام، کاهش معناداری داشته است. همچنین با مطالعه نتایج بدست آمده از مرحله پس از ادغام، مشخص شد که مشروعیت سازمان، تأثیر مثبت برهویت سازمانی دارد و هویت خنثی، دوجنبه ای و عدم احراز هویت را کاهش می دهد .

In addition the impact of organizational legitimacy on organizational identification and misidentification, ambivalent identification & neutral identification, after merger has been studied. Finally the solutions for improving organizational identification have been presented based on the results.
