The Effect of Transformational Leadership Style on Organizational Commitment to Student Organizations

Abstract

This study aims to determine how much influence the transformational leadership style has on an organizational commitment to student organizations, which in this study is a psychology student organization at Sunan Gunung Djati UIN Bandung, namely: Psychorescue. The method used in this study is quantitative with simple linear regression analysis with 40 subjects of Psychorescue members. The scale of transformational leadership style used is based on the theory of Bass and Avolio, while the organizational commitment used is based on the theory of J.P Meyer & J.J. Allen, both of which were made by researchers. The results showed that transformational leadership style had a significant effect of 67% on an organizational commitment to members of Psychorescue. The hypothesis testing obtained results of t-count of 8.769 while ttable with a significance level of 5% is df = N-2, then df = 40-2 = 38 which is equal to 2,024. So that t count is 8.769> t-table which is 2.024. This means that there is a significant effect of transformational leadership style on organizational commitment in Psychorescue members or it can be said that H1 is accepted and H0 is rejected.
