Numerous studies have shown affective organizational commitment and job satisfaction to be closely associated (Iverson and Roy, 1994;Mathieu & Hamel 1989;Michaels, …”

This article examines the relationship among perceived organizational support, affective organizational commitment, and employee citizenship behavior in Kuwaiti business organizations. Employees' affective organizational commitment is proposed to mediate the relationship between perceived organizational support and employee citizenship behavior. Data were collected from 261 employees affiliated with 9 Kuwait business organizations. These businesses represented firms in the banking, and financial industries. Results indicate that: (1) perceived organizational support is positively related to affective organizational commitment and (2) affective organizational commitment mediates the relationship between perceived organizational support, and organizational citizenship behavior.

“…In research literature job satisfaction is closely associated with organizational commitment (Clugston, 2000;Meyer et al, 2002;Yousef, 2002a;Bateman and Strasser, 1984). Numerous researchers have found that job satisfaction mediates the influence of several other variables on organizational commitment (For example, William and Hazer, 1986;Mathieu and Hamel, 1989;Lok and Crawford, 2001;Yousef, 2002a).…”

The study aimed at exploring the mediating effects of job satisfaction on role stressors namely, role overload and role conflict as sources of stress, on one hand, and affective commitment, on the other. Using a self-administered questionnaire, 151 branch managers of private sector commercial banks in Pakistan were randomly selected and surveyed to examine the mediating role of job satisfaction. Results revealed that role overload and role conflict directly and negatively influence job satisfaction. It was also found that role overload and role conflict directly and negatively influence affective commitment. The causal steps method along with correlation tests revealed that job satisfaction partially mediated the effects of role overload and role conflict on affective commitment. Implications, limitations, and future lines of research are also discussed in the paper.

“…Many previous studies have found that job satisfaction plays a role in some other variables to organizational and work commitments (William and Hazar, 1986, Mathieu and Hamel, 1989, Lok and Crawford, 2001, and Yousef, 2002. Work engagement is potential to be enhanced through satisfied employees (Abraham, 2012a(Abraham, , 2012b.…”
