Perceived union support and union instrumentality have been shown to uniquely predict union loyalty. This study was the first to explicitly examine the relation between perceived union support and union instrumentality. Surveys were completed by 273 union members and 29 union stewards. A comparison of 2 models, 1 based on organizational support theory and 1 based on union participation theories, found that the model based on organizational support theory, in which union instrumentality was an antecedent to perceived union support and led to union loyalty and subsequently union participation, best fit the data. The model based on union participation theories, in which perceived union support was an antecedent of union instrumentality and led to union loyalty and subsequently union participation, was not supported. Union instrumentality was related to union commitment, but the relation was completely mediated by perceived union support.
感知到的工会支持和工会工具性已被证明能独特地预测工会忠诚度。本研究首次明确考察了感知到的工会支持与工会工具性之间的关系。273名工会成员和29名工会代表完成了调查。对两个模型进行比较，一个基于组织支持理论，另一个基于工会参与理论，结果发现基于组织支持理论的模型最符合数据，在该模型中，工会工具性是感知到的工会支持的前因，并导致工会忠诚度以及随后的工会参与。基于工会参与理论的模型未得到支持，在该模型中，感知到的工会支持是工会工具性的前因，并导致工会忠诚度以及随后的工会参与。工会工具性与工会承诺相关，但这种关系完全由感知到的工会支持介导。
