| description |
This research was an attempt to study factors associated with the occupational
commitment of secondary school teachers in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The research
design was a descriptive correlational study and the data were collected using
questionnaires. The study followed a survey method which used a stratified sampling
technique to select 510 teachers. A response rate of 83 .23% (433) was considered to
be valid. Both descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyse the data of
the study.
The research findings showed that teachers' levels of affective, continuance,
normative and overall occupational commitment were moderate. Female teachers
indicated higher affective, normative and overall occupational commitment than did
males. Malay teachers indicated higher affective and overall occupational
commitment than did teachers from Chinese, Indian and other ethnic groups. Both
non-graduate teachers and teachers with a Bachelor's degree showed higher affective, continuance, nonnative and overall occupational commitment than did
teachers with a Master' s degree. Years of experience in a current school had a
significant correlation with continuance occupational commitment; whereas number
of children had a significant correlation with overall occupational commitment.
furthermore, the findings showed that supportive principal behaviour, engaged
teacher behaviour, frustrated teacher behaviour, affective organizational
commitment, continuance organizational commitment, normative organizational
commitment, role conflict, intrinsic motivation and extrinsic motivation have
significant correlations with affective, continuance, nonnative and overall
occupational commitment. Role ambiguity has a significant correlation with
affective, normative and overall occupational commitment. Intimate teacher
behaviour has a significant correlation with only affective occupational commitment. |
