Validity Evidence for the Organizational Commitment Questionnaire in the Japanese Corporate Culture.

White, Marion M.; And Others – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 1995

The three-factor model was a better fit to the data than the one- or two-factor models. Results support the cross-cultural utility of the measure. (SLD)
