Günümüz iş dünyası, yapay zekâ (YZ) teknolojilerinin hızla benimsenmesiyle önemli bir dönüşüm geçirmektedir. YZ, işletmelere operasyonel verimlilik, maliyet düşüşü ve rekabet avantajı gibi fırsatlar sunmaktadır. Ancak aynı zamanda çalışanlarda işsizlik korkusu ve belirsizlik gibi kaygılara da yol açmaktadır. YZ entegrasyonu sadece teknolojik bir adaptasyon değil, aynı zamanda çalışanların psikolojik sağlığını etkileyen karmaşık bir süreçtir. Çalışmanın temel amacı, psikolojik güçlendirme ile işe adanmışlık ve işte kendini yetiştirme arasındaki ilişkileri incelemek ve YZ kaygısının bu ilişkiler üzerindeki düzenleyici etkisini ortaya koymak olarak belirlenmiştir. Bu bağlamda, Ankara ili merkez ilçelerinde faaliyet gösteren özel banka çalışanlarından veri toplanmıştır. Veriler Smart PLS 4.0 istatiksel programı aracılığı ile Kısmi En Küçük Kareler (SEM-PLS) yöntemi kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Analiz sonuçları, psikolojik güçlendirmenin hem işte kendini yetiştirme hem de işe adanmışlık üzerinde anlamlı ve pozitif etkilere sahip olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Ayrıca, işe adanmışlığın da işte kendini yetiştirme üzerinde olumlu bir etkisi olduğu soncuna ulaşılmıştır. Ancak, YZ kaygısının psikolojik güçlendirme ile işte kendini yetiştirme arasındaki ilişki ile işe adanmışlık ve işte kendini yetiştirme arasındaki ilişki üzerinde düzenleyici bir etkiye sahip olmadığı sonucuna varılmıştır. Diğer yandan, YZ kaygısının psikolojik güçlendirme ile işe adanmışlık arasındaki pozitif ilişki üzerinde düzenleyici bir etkiye sahip olduğu belirlenmiştir. Bu araştırma ile teknoloji odaklı iş ortamlarında çalışanların verimliliklerini artırmak için daha etkili stratejiler geliştirilmesine katkı sağlayacağı düşünülmektedir.
