RATIONALE OF THE STUDY
Organizations now a days finding very hard to retain their employees. In the present study an attempt had
been made to know the relationship between loyalty and organizational factors. This study had been
designed to find out the reasons for difference in loyalty among teachers and to compare loyalty of teachers
of professional and non-professional courses. The study presents some valuable insights that might help
organizations develop effective strategies for developing teacher’s loyalty. It will also help the future
researchers for review.
OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY
1. To design, develop and standardize a measure to evaluate employee loyalty.
2. To find out the underlying factors of employee loyalty.
3. To compare the loyalty between teachers of professional and non-professional courses.
4. To open new vistas for further research.
2. RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
2.1 The Study
The study was exploratory in nature with survey being used as a method to complete the study.
2.2 Sampling Design
Population: All the teachers of various professional and non-professional institutions
of Gwalior region.
Sample Size: 100 teachers of various professional and non-professional institutions.
Sample element: Individual respondents of various professional and non-professional institutions
were part of my study.
Sampling Technique: Non-probability purposive sampling technique was used.
2.3 Tools used for data Collection:
Self designed questionnaire was used to solicit responses from the respondents ranging from 1 to 7
on a likert type scale.
2.4 Tools used for data Analysis:
Internal consistency was established through item to total correlation.
Reliability test was computed through Cronbach alpha to check whether data items in the
questionnaires are reliable or not.
Factor analysis was applied to identify the underlying factors of loyalty.
z-test and t-test were applied to compare loyalty of academic and professional teacher.
3. RESULT AND DISCUSSION
3.1 Consistency Measure
Consistency of all the factors in the questionnaire was checked through item to total correlation. In this
correlation of every item with the total was measured and the computed value was compared with standard
value of (0.137). Only those factors/statements were accepted whose value was more than the standard
value.
3.2 Reliability Measure
Cronach Alpha method has been applied to calculate reliability of all items in the questionnaire. Reliability
test measures are given below.
3.3 Factor Analysis
The raw scores of thirty-two items were subjected to principle component factor analysis and were applied
with varimax rotation with Kaiser Normalization to find out the factors that contribute towards the employee
loyalty. All the statements converged on six factors after eleven iteration.
