That institutionally employed professionals can exhibit divided commitments to their organization and profession is well documented. The impact such dual affiliation can have upon organizations, particularly academic institutions, is less well established. The purposes of this study were: (1) to describe the nature and magnitude of allied health education program directors' organizational and professional commitment and (2) to determine the utility of these measures in explaining variations in the job satisfaction of these professionals. A cross-sectional survey design gathered pertinent descriptive information and data on the organizational commitment, professional commitment, and job satisfaction of a modified cluster sample of program directors representing five allied health disciplines. Consistent with prior speculative assumptions regarding its importance, the professional commitment of these faculty was observed to exert a positive and independent effect upon the gratification they perceive in fulfilling their organizational roles. That a complementary, as opposed to conflicting, relationship exists between the organizational and professional commitment of allied health faculty has profound implications for academic administrators intent upon increasing the effectiveness of their organization.
机构聘用的专业人员对其组织和职业表现出不同程度的忠诚,这一点已有充分记录。这种双重从属关系对组织,尤其是学术机构可能产生的影响,却不太为人所知。本研究的目的是:(1)描述联合健康职业教育项目主任的组织承诺和职业承诺的性质及程度;(2)确定这些衡量标准在解释这些专业人员工作满意度差异方面的效用。一项横断面调查设计收集了相关描述性信息以及关于代表五个联合健康学科的项目主任的组织承诺、职业承诺和工作满意度的数据。与之前关于其重要性的推测性假设一致,观察到这些教员的职业承诺对他们在履行组织角色时所感受到的满足感产生了积极且独立的影响。联合健康专业教员的组织承诺和职业承诺之间存在互补而非冲突的关系,这对旨在提高组织效率的学术管理人员具有深远意义。
