In this context, this study aims at determining the relation between the authentic leadership and employees\u2019 work engagement and mediating role of the PsyCap on this relationship.

Validity of the study\u2019s scales was evaluated by explanatory (EFA) and confirmatory factor analyses (CFA) and the relations between the variables that comprise the research design were evaluated by the Structural Equation Model (SEM). Findings reveal that, the authentic leadership has a positive effect on both work engagement and PsyCap and PsyCap has a positive effect on the work engagement. Moreover, it is determined that the PsyCap has a partial mediating role in the authentic leadership\u2019s effect on the work engagement. Bootstrap test results also show that the mediating role of the PsyCap determined is significant. As a result, within the framework of the research variables, it can be stated that authentic leaders affect employees\u2019 work engagement directly with their leadership characteristics and partially by supporting and developing employees\u2019 PsyCap elements<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
