Organizational Commitment Survey: A Confirmatory Factorial Analysis Based on Vocational Colleges Teachers Sample

Abstract

This study was conducted to verify the construct model for organizational commitment among technical teachers at the Vocational College under the Ministry of Education. A study involving 25 vocational colleges with a total sample of 493 people consisting of teachers in mechanical engineering, electrical and electronic engineering fields, and engineering. This study uses Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) approach with AMOS 20 software. Researchers used the Organizational Commitment Questionnaire (OCQ) developed by Meyer, Allen, and Smith (1993) and Meyer and Allen (1997), comprising three substructures namely affective commitment, normative commitment and continuous commitment. The number of items is 24, 8 items per sub construct and after exploratory factor analysis is carried out there were only 22 items left. In order to ensure that the organization's commitment measuring model is verified, three factors have been evaluated as unidimensionality (looking at the factor loading ≥ 0.6), Validity (convergent validity AVE ≥ 0.5, and construct validity refers to fitness indexes) and Reliability (composite reliability, CR ≥ 0.6 and Average Variance Extracted ≥ 0.5). After the CFA analysis is carried out no items were dropped because all items have loading factors> 0.6, AVE ≥ 0.5 values for all sub constructs. While fitness indexes for Absolute Fit (RMESA = 0.062), Incremental Fit (CFI = 0.953, TLI = 0.945) and Parsimonious Fit (Chisq/df = 2.918) met the requirements set for all CR values ≥ 0.6. It can be concluded that after the measurement model was modified by looping between items, the model was fit to be used for structural model analysis process.

The sustainability of technology-aided leadership adoption among school leaders: If it could ever be this real forever

“…Prior to that, the normality tests were conducted to detect outliers. The value of Mahalanobis Distance was used to seek outliers [36], [37]. Tabachnick and Fidell suggested the Chi-squares distribution table value on the degree of freedom, the number of build items at the significant level of p 0.001, and the Mahalanobis Distance value greater than 143.3.44 as parameters, whereas the outlier data were removed from the study.…”

Validating Suburban Teachers’ Commitments: Let’s Appreciate Their Blood, Sweat, and Tears

“…However as a result, many factors influence teacher commitment such as school leader leadership, school climate, teacher workload, teacher attitude, and student discipline (Kasa et al, 2020;Lela et al, 2020;Mustafa et al, 2019). Successful leaders are usually able to increase teacher engagement in their schools (Don et al, 2021;Setyaningsih & Sunaryo, 2021).…”

“…Meyer and Allen (1997) describe organisational commitment as a psychological term that describes an employee's relationships with the organisation and has implications for an individual's decision to continue working there (Retnowati et al, 2021). Instruction, July 2022 • Vol.15, No.3 Employees who commit to the organisation will be better able to survive as members of the organisation when compared to employees who do not commit to the organisation Several models of organisational commitment have been developed as findings of the study (Meyer et al, 1993;Mustafa et al, 2019;Steers, 1977). However, the Meyer and Allen (1991) model were popular in the study because it is the most common among previous researchers (Culpepper, 2000;Nik Mustafa et al, 2015;Vandenberghe & Tremblay, 2008) as shown in figure 1.…”

The financial protection of Indonesian migrant workers and its economic consequences

“…The NTB Provincial Government has provided an LTSA that can serve PIPW who do not yet have an LTSA in the Regency/City where they live. Government commitment can be interpreted as a desire to involve the psychological bond between workers and organizations ( Mustafa et al, 2019). Therefore, LTSA in NTB Province is running effectively.…”
