More-over, the correlation between affective commitment and job satisfaction is stronger than the correlations between pairs of (affective, normative. facets of Meyer and Allen’s (1991) commitment construct (Meyer et al., 2002), and stronger than relationships between indicators of other general constructs (see du Toit & du Toit, 2001). Thus,it is reasonable to treat job satisfaction and attitudinal commitment as specific reflections of a general attitude, as each is a fundamental evaluation of one’s job experiences. Hence, we extend the work of Judge and coauthors (2001) and argue we can conceptualize both job satisfaction and organizational commitment as indicating an underlying overall job attitude.
