The Relationship

This study assesses the impact of participation in decision making on job satisfaction, organisational commitment and group commitment. It also seeks to fill the void about the extent of participation in decision making and commitment in Indian public sector undertakings (PSUs). Data were collected from 397 employees working in these different organizations. Structural equation modelling was used to examine the hypothesised relationships. The findings of the present study indicated that participation in decision making had significant relationship with job satisfaction. Job satisfaction was positively related to organisational commitment and group commitment. Participation in decision making has significant impact on organizational commitment but not on group commitment. Group commitment did not have significant impact on organizational commitment. Results suggest that participation in decision making is a key element as it enhances satisfaction of employees with the organization. The implications of these findings for the people holding key managerial responsibilities in public sector undertakings have been discussed.

The University

The aim of the present study was to identify factors that might have a direct or buffering effect on the stress-burnout relationship. Ninety-four ( N = 94) faculty members of the University of Western Cape, completed instruments developed to measure participation in decision-making, social support, organizational commitment, role conflict and role ambiguity. The results of moderated multiple regression analyses indicated a buffering effect for social support on the stress-emotional exhaustion relationship, a direct effect for participation in decision-making on personal accomplishment as well as a stress-buffering and direct effect for organizational commitment on depersonalization. The results appear to indicate that different factors play a role in each of the components of burnout and that interventions aimed at addressing the problem of burnout need to take this fact into account.

The Relationship

AbstractParticipation in organizational decision-making has received considerable attention from scholars. Beyond the perspectives proposed in past studies, we offer a new account, based upon a communication perspective, to explain why and when participation in decision-making can influence job satisfaction. Drawing from social capital theory, we examine whether communication openness mediates the relationship between participation in decision-making and job satisfaction. We also investigate how information adequacy moderates this mediated process. Results from a sample of 184 employees in China showed that the four-factor model was the best fitting solution (CFI = .91, GFI = .90, RMSEA = .09). The analyses indicated that employees’ participation in decision-making positively affected their job satisfaction (β = .32, p < .001), and the effect was mediated by communication openness (direct effect became non-significant when communication openness was included: β = .06, n.s.). Results also found that decision-making information adequacy positively moderated the relationship between participation in decision-making and communication openness (β = .13, p < .05). Thus, open communication and the free flow of information within organizations should be encouraged.
