This is a meta-analysis study. The study aims to determine the highest average score and the impact of the three elements of Allen and Meyer’s organizational commitment: Affective Commitment (AC), Normative Commitment (NC), and Continuance Commitment (CC). The author employed Sturgess's interpretation to determine the average score by Very Low, Low, Low Enough, High Enough, High, and Very High. We got that the highest average score of the three components of organizational commitments is the affective commitment (0.704), followed by the normative commitment (0.681), and the last one is the continuance commitment (0.585). We draw the conclusion that a person, basically, wants to be useful to others. Then, she will be able to put aside individual interests for the sake of common interests so that she will dare to bind herself to agreements, rules, and norms for mutual survival (NC). 'As a result of wanting to be useful to others and having the courage to decide to stay together in the rules, she will dare to put aside his transactional self-interest which is centered on personal interests or gain (CC). The scoring average consecutively says that AC is the biggest among of all, NC is less than AC, and CC is the least, implies that a manager should be able to build and maintain the AC as the first priority, followed by the NC. If a manager has been able to build and maintain the AC and NC, she is able to build and maintain the CC automatically.

Findings Mean and SD for organizational commitment and ethical leadership were 3.44 ± 0.7 and 3.66 ± 0.62, respectively. Affective commitment had the highest average score among organizational commitment dimensions (3.63 ± 0.75). Among ethical leadership dimensions, ethical management showed the highest average (3.79 ± 0.70). Each component of organizational commitment, i.e. affective commitment, continuance commitment and normative commitment, also showed a significant relationship with ethical leadership (p < 0.05). Model fit results revealed that independent variables could anticipate 87% of changes of dependent variables in organizational commitment. Originality/value The results show a significantly positive relationship between ethical leadership and organizational commitment among the firefighters. Therefore, by using ethical leadership method, i.e. being a role model, improving the relations between management and employees, establishing trust and mutual respect, managers of fire departments can increase firefighters’ organizational commitment, affective commitment, continuance commitment and normative commitment and prevent them from quitting.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to examine the relationships of internal and external networking behaviors of managers and professionals with their affective, continuance, and normative commitment. Design/methodology/approach – Data were obtained from 335 managers and professionals of a health system who completed a survey on networking behavior and organizational commitment. Correlation analyses and multiple regressions were performed to test our hypotheses. Findings – The results showed that networking behavior focussed within an individual's organization was positively related with affective commitment and normative commitment. Networking with individuals outside of an individual's organization showed a significant negative relationship with normative commitment. Contrary to expectations, networking externally was not related to affective commitment, and neither internal nor external networking behaviors were related to continuance commitment. Research limitations/implications – Because data were collected at a single point in time, no statements can be made about causality. Future research is needed assessing both internal and external networking behavior and the three types of organizational commitment across time to help determine direction of causality or whether reciprocal relationships exist. Practical implications – Organizations that encourage internal networking behaviors may see individuals who are more connected with their colleagues and affectively committed to their organizations. However, encouraging external networking behavior may result in a drop in normative commitment as individuals might identify more with their profession than their employer. Originality/value – Although previous research has shown that networking behavior is related to job performance and career success measures, the research extends the literature by investigating whether networking is related to attitudinal variables such as organizational commitment. The paper explores whether differential relationships exist between internal and external networking behavior with three types of organizational commitment.
