ABSTRACT

This study examines the cross-cultural transferability of organizational commitment as a construct in relation to Korean employees. OReilly and Chatmans organizational commitment scale was used to test whether organizational commitment has the same construct validity and criterion-related validity in a Korean context. This study also compares the concept of organizational commitment in relation to both professional and non-professional employees.The relationships typically found in the United States between organizational commitment measures and other theoretically related variables were also [delete also] found in the investigation of a Korean sample group [delete group]. In addition, differing magnitudes of work-related commitments, i.e., organizational commitment and career commitment were found between professional employees and non-professional employees in this sample. The concept of the transferability of organizational theories and measures across cultures was generally supported.
