Predicting employee commitment and satisfaction: the relative effects of socialization and demographics

Article Abstract:

A comparison of the relative impact of organizational socialization and demographic variables on job satisfaction and organizational commitment has focused on Chinese employees in Hong Kong. The results showed a much stronger pattern of influence by the socialization variables on satisfaction and commitment than by the demographic variables. In all cases, the socialization variables were the stronger predictor, irrespective of how much total variance was explained. Employee understanding of their jobs and how their firms operate was strongly connected with all of the satisfaction and commitment measures.
