The Relationship between Psychological Contract Breach and Psychological Contract Violation: The interactive effects of Tenure

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between psychological contract breach (PCB) and psychological contract violation (PCV), and the extent to which this relationship is moderated by tenure. The data for the study was collected from a sample of 304 faculty members working in three public-sector universities in Quetta City. Data were collected from respondents using proportionate random sampling and using close-ended questionnaires. The analysis of the data revealed that PCB had a significant positive relation with PCV and tenure moderated this relationship. Limitations and practical implications are discussed in the end.
