The Impact

Purpose As universities are human capital intensive organizations, practices followed by a university for enhancing the satisfaction of its teachers can be of great help in attracting, retaining and managing highly qualified and competent teachers. The purpose of this paper is to empirically examine the impact of job satisfaction (JS) on organizational commitment (OC) of university teachers in India. Design/methodology/approach A total of 396 academicians are surveyed to assess the subjects’ responses to JS and commitment questionnaire. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was used in the process of statistical analysis. Findings The results confirmed a significant impact of JS on OC of university teachers in India. With 1 percent increase in estimates of pay and job security (PJS), organizational support (OS) and job challenge (JC), there would be 21, 36 and 49 percentage increase, respectively, in OC of university teachers. Of all the factors of JS, JC is the most significant contributing factor, followed by OC and PJS that help in motivating and retaining the teachers in higher education institutions in India. Research limitations/implications The sample of the study has been chosen from the higher education sector in Northern India, and so it still needs to be explored whether the findings of this study can be replicated in different geographical areas and organizational settings for further verification and generalization. Practical implications Encouraging greater satisfaction among the faculty members may positively influence work-related behaviors, especially commitment among the teachers. The paper may benefit the decision makers in universities to follow the proactive practices to improve the satisfaction and commitment of teachers as educational performance is of priority on the national agenda. Originality/value The study provides useful insights about a JS-OC relationship model and informs the stakeholders on how to create an enabling environment at the policy and practice level that would help in attracting and retaining teachers in universities in India. It contributes to enriching the JS and OC literature in a sector and a country poorly addressed so far in research.

Negative Effect

Drawing insight from affective events theory, this study presents a new dimension of perceived organizational politics and job attitudes. The motivation for this study was based on the fact that perceived organizational politics affect job attitudes and that personal resources (political skill and work ethic) moderate the direct relationship between perceived organizational politics and job attitudes in the context of the higher-education sector. In this regard, the data was collected through purposive sampling from 310 faculty members from higher-education institutions in Pakistan. To test the relationships among the variables, we employed structural equation modeling via the AMOS software version 24.0. The results indicated that perceived organizational politics were significantly negatively related to job satisfaction. Moreover, perceived organizational politics were non-significantly related to job involvement. Political skill and work ethic weakened the relationship between perceived organizational politics and job satisfaction. We anticipated that these personal resources could mitigate the negative effect of perceived organizational politics and job attitudes. This study also suggests organizations to train their employees to develop essential personal skills.

This study explores the relationship of participative budgeting on budgetary slack in the public sector in Indonesia, by examining the roles of job satisfaction on these variables. A total of 185 budget managers of regional work units in the in North Maluku province government, Indonesia, participated in the survey. The effective rate of return was 82.52 percent.  A structural equation modeling was used to examine the direct and indirect effects of participative budgeting on budgetary slack. In particular, the study gives empirical evidences that participative budgeting factors affect budgetary slack mediated by intervening variables factors of job satisfaction. The results revealed the significantly negative effect of participative budgeting on budgetary slack, the significantly positive effect of participative budgeting on job satisfaction. This result affirmed the significantly negative impact of job satisfaction as a mediating variables on budgetary slack. However, the results could not find the indication of moderating effect of job satisfaction in the relationship of these variables.

The adoption of International Standards on Auditing (ISA) by IAPI as a new auditing standard in Indonesia is unavoidable choice. As a consequences, alteration of teaching materials on higher education into ISA is considered as a necessary step that has to be taken. If the presumption of institutional isomorfism is taken place by IAPI, the feared of unwellprepared higher education and lectures in the process of adoption and integration new auditing standard has a reasonable reasons. This research is conducted to examine relationship of organization support and individual factor in the process of developing and teaching of audit course material to conform to ISA. Data collection in this research is based on survey that has been used in many similar researches. Training variable represent organization support as well as self-efficacy represent individual variable. Structural equation modeling is applied in this research. Finding of this research demonstrate that hypothesis of relationship between training and self-efficacy and teaching material is significantly supported so that this research elaborate institutional theory of institutional isomorphism. Finding of hypothesis examination indicates that organization support in the form of training could be a proper medium to increase lecturer competency especially in the ISA implementation. Furthermore, professionalism itself could be an important root for the creation of isomorphism norm.

Although workplace bullying is a well-researched phenomenon, the specific way it unfolds in higher education institutions (HEI) remains largely underdiscussed. Based on the outcomes of a survey conducted across HEI in Pakistan, by reference to structural equation modeling, using Amos-20, this paper not only adds to our understanding of the scope and features of bullying in HEI, but also suggests strategies employers and victims could employ to cope with the adverse implications of bullying. The key findings of this research are: (i) a positive correlation exists between the degree of workplace bullying and strain levels; (ii) more frequently than not, female employees, younger employees, and employees in junior positions are victims of bullying; (iii) bullying and strain can be fully mediated only when both emotion-focused and problem-focused coping strategies are employed in synergy. In brief, although research findings elaborated in this paper draw from the specific case of HEI in Pakistan, this paper makes a case for more research, vigilance and action to understand the scale of the phenomenon in academia and to undertake concerted action to mitigate its adverse impact on specific individuals and HEI themselves.

The Relationship

Concerns about the environment began to rise as various issues such as littering increased. Littering is one of the problems involving the environment, and higher education campuses are also actively practising anti-littering to show their efforts. The aim of this study is to test the relationship between environmental concern, attitude and intention on anti-littering using Theory of Planned Behavior Extended Model. A total of 303 students of the Polytechnic Malaysia campus were respondents in this study and the data were analyzed by Structural Equation Modeling using SPSS Amos 24.0 Statistical Packages. Findings show that there is a direct and indirect effect between environmental concern and student’s anti-littering intention. The indirect result shows that attitude towards anti-littering behavior partially mediates the relationship between environmental concern and anti-littering intention. The implications of the research findings and suggestions for the future study are also included in the study.
