“…Although far less studied than negative affectivity, positive affectivity has been found to have at least indirect positive associations with indicators of work adjustment such as job satisfaction, organizational commitment, and motivation (Chiu, 2000;Cropanzano, James, & Konovsky, 1993). We speculate that individuals who experience pleasant affective states should be more willing and able to perceive potentially positive elements of an organization-to see the organization in a positive or optimistic light (Watson, 2002)-and consequently to identify with the organization.…”

SummaryRecent research on organizational identification has called for the consideration of an expanded model of identification, which would include a more thorough treatment of the ways an individual could derive his or her identity from the organization. This paper begins to answer that call by testing operationalizations of the four dimensions of the expanded model: identification, disidentification, ambivalent identification, and neutral identification. Survey results from 330 employed adults support the discriminability of the four dimensions. This exploratory study also begins to establish the criterion-related validity of the model by examining organizational, job-related, and individual difference variables associated with the four dimensions of the model, and suggests implications for the expanded model's strong potential for applications in organizational identification research.

“…It has been found that an increase in salary and benefits will increase a person's motivation (Chiu, 2000). Ghenghesh (2013) provided evidence to show that teachers would be dissatisfied in their salary if the amount of salary given is not adequate with the effort and time that have been put in and this lead to frustration.…”

Many factors contribute to the success of students' academic performance. Admittedly, quality of teaching is one of those factors. In this study, based on the related literature on teacher motivation, six main factors affecting teachers' motivation towards teaching are identified. Accordingly, an online questionnaire was designed by the authors. In total, 207 (40 males and 167 females) mathematics teachers from primary, secondary and sixth-form government schools in Brunei Darussalam randomly volunteered to respond to this questionnaire. The findings from this study have implications for understanding the extent to which factors may motivate or demotivate teachers to teach. The present research provided education stakeholders with important information to ponder over the motivational factors of mathematics teachers in the government schools. The results from our study also suggested that good interaction and collaboration between teachers can help boost teachers' motivation to teach.

“…Other researchers have also reported that job satisfaction is so important in that its absence often leads to lassitude and lessened organisational commitment of employees (Levinson and Hohenshil, 1987;Moser, 1997). Again, (Begley and Czajka, 1993;Chiu, 2000;Tharenou, 1993) posit that job satisfaction is correlated to enhanced job performance, positive work values, high levels of employee motivation, and lower rates of turnover and burnout. Lack of job satisfaction, then, is a predictor of quitting a job (Alexander et al, 1998;Jamal, 1997;Tella et al, 2007).…”

This study examined the impact of fairness perceptions in policy implementations on employees' job satisfaction, work motivation and organisational commitment in the banking sector of Ghana. A correlational research design was adopted for the study. A total of 100 participants were randomly selected to respond to a 45-item questionnaire. Data obtained from the study were analysed with Pearson correlation, independent t-test and One-way ANOVA at 0.05 alpha levels. Findings reveal that job satisfaction and commitment were significantly related to employees' perceptions of fairness in policy implementation. Again, a statistically significant positive correlation was established between organisational commitment and job satisfaction. Also, it was found that a significant difference exists between age and employees work motivation. Moreover, the finding shows that there was a significant difference in organisational commitment based on employees' job position. Based on the findings, it was recommended that management in the banking sector should implement transparent and justifiable policy programmes that will boost employee satisfaction, motivation and commitment to working with the organisation. Policy implementers (or decision makers) in the banking business should pay particular attention to employee job satisfaction since the absence of satisfaction degenerate into lassitude and lessened organisational commitment.
