Nursing faculty retention is critical, as faculty retention directly impacts educational programs that produce future nurses poised to meet employment demand. The topics of job satisfaction and commitment are of continued interest as researchers examine factors that affect nursing faculty's intent to stay. Thus, this research focused on job satisfaction that potentially impacts the level of affective organizational commitment among nursing faculty. Regression results revealed that the supervisor, promotion, nature of work, and satisfaction with coworkers were positively related to affective organizational commitment, while nursing pay, benefits, and operating conditions revealed no statistically significant results.

<p>We used the samples of six studies to validate the Work Domain Satisfaction Scale (WDSS), a global, five-item and mid-level measure of work domain well-being. English and French versions of the scale were included in the studies to assess the stability of the instrument across these languages. Confirmatory factor analysis yielded a one-factor structure, which was shown invariant across languages and samples. Test-retest reliability of the scale was high, indicating that it measures a stable construct over time. Confirmatory factor analysis also provided evidence that satisfaction with work, measured with the WDSS, is related, but conceptually and empirically distinct from both life satisfaction and job satisfaction. The WDSS was also correlated in predictable ways with affective organizational commitment, a measure of how attached people are to their organizations. Work domain satisfaction also explained a significant amount of variance in affective organizational commitment, beyond job satisfaction. Moreover, the WDSS was positively related to inclusion of work into the self, a psychological variable that reflects the importance of work in the lives of individuals. The results indicate that the WDSS is a reliable, stable, and valid mid-level measure of satisfaction with work as a domain within people’s lives.</p>

ABSTRACT Introduction Retention is a top priority for the U.S. Navy. However, our understanding of factors influencing retention of Navy personnel is limited. Current research implies that poor mental health, low appraisals of unit cohesion, low leadership satisfaction, and low social support may adversely affect retention. There is a need to understand how these and other factors influence retention in U.S. Navy personnel. We evaluated a broad range of factors influencing job satisfaction and career intentions (proxies of retention) in a large sample of Navy service members. Materials and Methods Seven hundred and ninety-eight U.S. Navy men and women participated in this study as part of the Naval Unit Behavioral Health Needs Survey (NHRC.2014.0006). Independent variables included personal and unit morale, unit cohesion, affective organizational commitment, social support, behavioral health, sleep, leadership satisfaction, and perceived stress. Dependent variables include job satisfaction and career intentions. Separate multivariate regression models examined the unique and combined associations of independent and demographic variables with each dependent variable, respectively. Results Regression models accounted for 48% of variance in job satisfaction and 55% of variance in career intentions, respectively. The most robust predictors of job satisfaction were affective organizational commitment (i.e., one’s emotional attachment to, identification with, and involvement in an organization), depressive symptoms, unit cohesion, and perceived stress; primary predictors of career intentions included affective organizational commitment, years of military service, marital status, and race/ethnicity. Conclusion In this study, we identified diverse predictors of job satisfaction and career intentions of Navy men and women, with overall models accounting for substantial variance in both outcomes. This study informs evidence-based policies, programs, practices, and processes designed to influence job satisfaction, career intentions, and retention in U.S. Navy service members. These study findings also inform the development of a dashboard indicator of retention of U.S. Navy men and women.

Lecturer responsibilities in presenting learning materials and building students’ character is considered very important in preparing future workers/entrepreneur. However, those responsibilities still have not received proper attention in certain institutions and even from the government. If this goes on continuously, it is feared that they will lose wellperformed individuals. This study aimed to investigate the level of turnover intention from the lecturer in six private universities in Bandung. And the role of financial rewards, job satisfaction, and affective organizational commitment as antecedents. Data collected using an online questionnaire. The numbers of total lecturers in those universities were around 3000. This study used a non-probability sample and distributed 500 questionnaires through the human resources office. And after two months, there are 288 participants which willing to complete the questionnaire. After the more detailed screening, we have 121 responses that met our requirements and can be used in this study. The study found that financial rewards were significantly affected job satisfaction and affective organizational commitment. But it was not significantly affected turnover intention. Partially, job satisfaction and affective commitment have not mediated the relationship between financial rewards and turnover intention. But, simultaneously, both variables have significantly mediated the relationship. These results give new understanding to the managers in the educational organization regarding maintaining the turnover level of their lecturers. In the future, studies can be conducted to cover lecturers from other cities in Indonesia.

The organizational commitment of employees plays a vital role in the success of any business. In the era of competition, companies are struggling to retain the employees committed to the organizations. There is a scarcity of research to investigate the factors that influence effective organizational commitment in a developing country. The researcher conducted a survey to collect data from employees working in the banking sector of Pakistan. The present study utilized the convenience sampling method to get responses. A total of 300 questionnaires were distributed, from which 215 responses were received, where 15 questionnaires were found partially filled, which were discarded for further analysis. The 200 questionnaires proceeded for statistical analysis using the partial least square structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) technique. The software of SmartPLS ver 3.0 was used to analyze the significance of hypotheses. Current research revealed the significant relationship between trust and affective commitment mediated through job satisfaction. The present study provides several theoretical and practical implications by extending social exchange theory and delivering guidelines to banks' human resource departments to build trust among employees, and gauging job satisfaction to increase affective organizational commitment.
