“…In other words, these patterns further augmented the significance of organizational culture towards organizational commitment (Yiing & Ahmad, 2009;Silverthorne, 2004); transformational leadership style towards organizational commitment (Joo et al, 2012;Geijsel et al, 2003) and organizational justice towards organizational commitment (Alfy & David, 2017;Choong et al, 2010). Presently, limited empirical studies examining these relationships in a joint effect with organizational commitment as a mediator towards OCB existed, leading to the following hypothesis:…”

“…To demonstrate this point, it is vital to nurture a positive educational environment for faculty members by implementing fair procedures to ensure that they remain motivated and maximize their full potential (Alfy & David, 2017). In addition, policymakers in higher educations need to understand that faculty members are from diverse groups and perception of fairness may vary in terms of resource allocations and culture.…”

“…In contrast, a study conducted in India (Jain, 2016) discovered that organization culture does not have any impact on OCB due to the dominance of male respondents in a typical Indian workplace. This diverges from transformational leadership style which will increase positive employees' behaviours in higher education institutions through the policy of fairness (Alfy &David, 2017;Joo et al, 2012).…”

“…Hence, there has been an expansion of academic research on positive work outcomes in higher education institutions (Bryman, 2007) stemming from the benefits of OCB (Asgari, Silong, Ahmad, & Samah, 2008;Farzaneh, Farashah, & Kazemi, 2014). Past studies had disclosed that organizational culture, transformational leadership, and organizational justice have profound impacts towards OCB and organizational performance (Silverthorne, 2004;Joo, Yoon & Jeung, 2012;Alfy & David, 2017) even though the variables have not been tested together. It is important to understand organisation culture because each component suggested in organisation culture can encourage or discourage positive behaviours among employees such as innovative culture.…”

This study aims to perpetuate the investigation of organizational commitment and its mediating role as it is one of the most crucial components in understanding organizational behaviour. A total of 324 samples were collected from the academics of 20 private universities in Malaysia. Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) using SmartPLS3.0 was used to perform the latent variable analysis. The results indicate transformational leadership, organizational culture, and organizational justice are the significant predictors of organizational commitment, and organizational commitment, in turn, is found to be a strong predictor of organizational citizenship behaviour. Moreover, the results of mediating analysis highlight that organizational commitment significantly mediates the hypothesized relationship. The implications of the findings are discussed and recommendations for future research are proposed.

This work aims to elaborate a governance composite index for research laboratories in public university. This index is composed by an indicator of responsible liberalism associating effectiveness and ethics, to which are added an organizational management indicator and a strategic management indicator. To achieve the above aim, several methods are used, such as adjusted data envelopment analysis and geometric mean to aggregate indicators to calculate the composite index, Vigier index to compute responsible liberalism indicator, and tools to measure the validity and the reliability of indicators. The findings show that the developed index can be applied in any context.

Motivation for teaching is key in the establishment and further development of high-quality higher education, as it affects teachers’ investment in quality learning experiences for their students, as well as institutional efficacy and well-being. This study aimed to validate a questionnaire, originally developed in Belgium, designed to evaluate three dimensions (self-efficacy, interest, and effort) of intrinsic motivation for teaching for a different national population. The sample consisted of 616 academics working in public higher education institutions in Portugal. Confirmatory factor analysis was conducted and internal consistency of items analyzed. The results show that the original dimensionality of the construct is confirmed in the Portuguese teachers’ sample. Motivation for teaching in the Portuguese context is primarily explained by the following factors: personal efficacy, interest in the task, and effort placed on teaching responsibilities. A difference was found in that personal efficacy could not be divided in context and general personal efficacy.
