Identifying Latent Profiles Based on Three Components of Organizational Commitment: Multi-Sample Investigations in Korea
Song, Ji Hoon; Lee, Yunsoo
European Journal of Training and Development, v45 n2-3 p241-258 2021
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to identify latent profiles based on 3 dimensions of organizational commitment (OC) using 14 Korean samples. Design/methodology/approach: This study used unpublished raw data. Allen and Meyer's (1996) measurement was used to maintain consistency and facilitate comparison across samples. To determine the number of latent profiles that exist in Korea based on employees' level of OC, a latent profile analysis (LPA) was performed. Findings: The findings showed that there are two or three profiles (i.e. fully committed, weakly committed and/or moderately committed) across various types of organizations in Korea. These findings are similar to those based on LPA conducted in the West. The number of profiles is more limited in Korean samples than it is in Western samples. Like Western studies, this Korean-focused study identified fully committed, weakly committed and moderately committed profiles, but it did not show any other types of profiles found in the Western sample. Originality/value: Based on these results, this study suggests academic and practical implications for researchers and practitioners.
