A Study of the Relationship Between Organizational Commitment and Human Values in Four Countries
基于匈牙利、意大利、英国和美国1259名护士的数据，研究了人类价值观与情感承诺和持续承诺的关系，发现价值观对组织承诺的影响因文化而异。
Cross-cultural comparisons of the relationship between human values and both continuance commitment (CC) and affective commitment (AC) are presented using data collected from 1259 nurses from Hungary, Italy, the UK, and USA. That correlations between Schwartz’s (1992) values and both AC and CC will differ between communal and contractual cultures was partially supported. Moreover, certain values correlate more often with AC or CC depending on the culture one is in. Openness to change values accounted for significant variance in AC in Hungary, Italy and the USA. Pan-culturally, openness to change values partially mediated the effects of countries on AC. It is concluded that values likely influence one’s organizational commitment and that the values people endorse might be influenced by national culture.
