Identifying Organizational Identification.

Mael, Fred A.; Tetrick, Lois E.

Educational and Psychological Measurement, v52 n4 p813-24 Win 1992

A study of attitudes toward the job of 263 daytime-employed college students demonstrates that identification with a psychological group or organization (IDPG) is conceptually and empirically distinct from organizational commitment. IDPG also has less overlap than commitment with job satisfaction, organizational satisfaction, and job involvement. (SLD)
