The Mediating Role of Affective Commitment in the Relation of the Feedback Environment to Work Outcomes
Norris-Watts, Christina; Levy, Paul E.
Journal of Vocational Behavior, v65 n3 p351-365 Dec 2004
The Feedback Environment, as opposed to the formal performance appraisal process, is comprised of the daily interactions between members of an organization (Steelman, Levy, & Snell, in press). Relations between the feedback environment and work outcome variables such as Organizational Citizenship Behavior (OCB) were examined through the mediating effects of affective commitment. Results indicate that affective commitment mediates the relation between the feedback environment and organizational citizenship behavior, and this mediated relation is stronger for OCBs directed at individuals than directed at the organization as a whole. Conclusions and implications are discussed.
