Question

Which of the following describe(s) organizational commitment?

• A. A strong desire to remain a member of the organization
• B. Willingness to exert high level of effort on behalf of the organization
• C. A definite belief in and acceptance of values and goals of the organization
• D. High turnover intention of the employees of the organization

Hint:

Think ABC of commitment: \textbf{A}ttachment (stay), \textbf{B}elief in goals/values, and extra \textbf{C}ontribution (effort).

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A, B, C

Step 1: Core facets (Porter et al.). Organizational commitment comprises:
$\bullet$ Affective attachment/desire to remain — loyalty and identification with the organization $\Rightarrow$ (A).
$\bullet$ Willingness to exert effort beyond minimum role requirements $\Rightarrow$ (B).
$\bullet$ Belief in/acceptance of organizational goals and values $\Rightarrow$ (C).

Step 2: Distractor. (D) “High turnover intention” is the opposite of commitment (it signals intent to leave), so it is not a component.
Hence, the correct set is \fbox{(A), (B), (C)}.
