Abstract
A falta de precisão acerca da dimensionalidade do comprometimento organizacional contribui para torná-lo um construtocomplexo e multifacetado. Com o objetivo de identificar a melhor estrutura fatorial para o comprometimento organizacional,o presente trabalhou testou o inter-relacionamento de duas medidas atitudinais - afetiva e instrumental - bem como orelacionamento dessas variáveis com uma medida de intenções comportamentais. Foram selecionados 1.869 trabalhadores dasregiões Norte, Nordeste e Sul do Brasil. Os resultados das análises de regressão e das análises fatoriais exploratórias e confirmatóriasapontaram a bidimensionalidade da base instrumental (falta de alternativas e sacrifícios percebidos). Por outro lado, demonstra-ram que a dimensão instrumental não compõe a estrutura fatorial do comprometimento organizacional atitudinal que, por ora,é um construto unidimensional, formado somente pela dimensão afetiva.
The lack of precision surrounding the dimensionality of organizational commitment helps to make it a complex and multifaceted construct.In order to identify the best factor structure for organizational commitment, this study tested the inter-relationship between two attitudinalmeasures (affective and instrumental) and also the relationship of these variables with a measurement of behavioral intentions. We selected1,869 workers from the Northern, Northeastern and Southern regions of Brazil. The results of the regression analysis and both the exploratoryand confirmatory factor analysis showed the bidimensionality of the instrumental dimension (lack of alternatives and high sacrifices); on theother hand, they demonstrated that this dimension is not part of the factor structure of attitudinal organizational commitment, which inturn is a one dimensional construct, comprising only the affective dimension.
