“…There is, however, some indication that the insensitivity of the measure of commitment employed in their study could hâve contributed to the lack of significance (Alutto, Hrebiniak and Alonso, 1970). In another study, Stevens, Beyer and Trice (1978) found that âge was positively related with organizational commitment of managers in fédéral government organizations, but is was insignificant in the régression analysis. This resuit may possibly be explained by the easier transferability of workers in the fédéral service as compared to private service.…”

“…It has been described in such diverse ways as: attachment to and identification with an organization (Buchanan, 1974); a binding of attitude and belief to prior behaviors (Salancik, 1977); a resignation to a status, under penalty of forfeiture of the costs of attainment of that status (Becker, 1960); and a dependency relationship in which maintenance of an indivi-dual's "internal being requires behavior that supports the social order" (Kanter, 1972: 66). Such diverse conceptual frameworks and their operational definitions-including several variations on why and how people become committed and how to measure commitment (Angle & Perry, 1983;Kiesler, 1971;Ritzer & Trice, 1969;Stevens, Beyer, & Trice, 1978)-have created a situation in which it is often difficult to make direct comparisons among commitment studies.…”

Glisson and Durick (1988) pointed out that research efforts, with a few exceptions (Herman and Hulin, 1972;Buchanan, 1974;Herman, Dunham, and HUlin, 1975;steers, 1977;Rousseau, 1978;stevens, Beyer, and Trice, 1978;Morris and Sherman, 1981;and Staw and Ross, 1985), have tended to examine variables from only one or occasionally two of the three predictors at a time. This makes simultaneous comparisons of the unique effects of variables from all categories impossible.…”
