Determine the relationship between the level of job satisfaction and the level of
affective commitment. Given that there are basically five useful dimensions of job
satisfaction, namely, pay, promotion, supervision, co-workers and work itself (Smith,
Kendall and Hulin, 1969), this study investigated the relationship between the level of
satisfaction of each of the facets of job satisfaction and the level of affective
commitment, a dimension of organizational commitment according to the revised
Organizational Commitment Scales (Meyer, Allen and Smith, 1993).
