THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN JOB SATISFACTION AND AFFECTIVE COMMITMENT TOWARD ORGANIZATIONAL BEHAVIOR

Abstract

The aim of this study looks at the function of leadership (LE) in mediating the link between job satisfaction and affective commitment toward organizational behavior in Jordan. The concept of commitment and its different relations have been widely studied in the organizational behavior literature, either as employees’ commitment to organizations (Sumarsi & Rizal, 2022; Khraiwish, Al-Gasawneh, Joudeh, Nusairat, & Alabdi, 2022). The study looks at this issue by gathering information from 208 employees in Jordanian companies, which were analyzed using SmartPLS. According to the findings of the study, leadership use and affective commitment support are critical to increasing the efficacy of organizational behavior, but leadership use and job satisfaction are noncritical to increasing the efficacy of organizational behavior. The findings indicate that there is a considerable association between affective commitment and organizational behavior. Additionally, leadership has a key role in mediating the link between affective commitment and the success of organizational behavior. Future studies may examine managerial support on the relationship between job satisfaction and affective commitment toward organizational behavior.
