摘要：
The authors report a series of 9 studies (N = 2,734) in which they evaluated the construct definition, measurement, and validation of organizational commitment (OC). An integrated examination of a wide range of antecedents of the various dimensions of OC was conducted. Results support the existence of 3 major OC dimensions (affective, continuance, and normative), with 2 subdimensions (personal sacrifice and lack of alternatives) for the continuance dimension. Results suggest that the widely used Organizational Commitment Questionnaire assesses primarily the affective dimension. Results provide various levels of support for the set of proposed antecedents. Implications for construct definition, measurement, and future research are discussed.
