Abstract
Objectives: In this study, the relationship between levels of workaholism and obsession was investigated in a group that was composed of independent accountantfinancial advisers and civil servants. Materials and methods: Two different scales were used in order to determine the workaholism and obsession levels. These two scales and a form to collect demographical variables were administered to 260 workers. Among them the data obtained from 170 workers were evaluated. Parametric tests and correlation analysis were used to analyze the data. The level of statistical significance was accepted as p<0.05. Results: The work enjoyment (WE) scores of independent accountant-financial advisers were higher than those of both civil servants and their employee. WE scores of participants who have graduated from university degree were higher than those of students who were high school graduates. There were positive correlations between WE score of workaholism scale and control and just-right scores. Additionally, work driven score of workaholism scale was found to be positively correlated with cleaning, ruminations, and control and just-right scores. Conclusion: It can be said that there is a positive correlation between workaholism sub components and obsessions
