ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study is to present a empirical model for relating role stress and organizational commitment in police organization. Especially, this model is based on a premise that the relationship between role stress and organizational commitment is moderated by leadership type. Hence this research tried to classify the type of leadership into two categories(trasactional leadership and transformational leadership). Results showed as follows: first, role conflict negatively affected on the affirmative commitment, whereas Role ambiguity positively affected on the affirmative commitment. Secondly, the moderating effects of leadership were different in follower’s situation. To put it concretely, in a role conflict situation, the transactional leadership was to further aggravate both affective commitment and normative commitment than transformational leadership. On the other hands, transactional leadership was more efficient when the followers are suffering in role ambiguity. Based on the presented results, there is no single way of leading to enhance organizational effectiveness. Namely, every leadership style should be based on certain situation where their subordinates are. Because modern society has been changed to NPS, police officer cannot help going through role stress. Therefore we should design to manage role stress of police officer for not only organizational effectiveness but also the safety of the people. The researchers tried to suggest public administrative and public policy implication in the aspects of national development as well as the satisfaction of individual police officers. We hope this study would strive to contribute to designing the future policy.
