Psychology and Education: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2025

Teachers play an essential part in molding and imparting knowledge to the young minds of the students. The more teachers feel valued in their school, the more productive they are. Retaining and satisfying dedicated teachers becomes important. This study developed a structural model of teachers’ commitment, retention, and satisfaction with performance. Four hundred twenty-two (422) secondary private school teachers participated in the study. Descriptive correlational and causal-comparative research designs were employed. Valid and reliable survey questionnaires were used as data collection tools. Structural Equation Model (SEM) was developed using AMOS. Results revealed that secondary private school teachers have a high level of commitment. Teachers are highly satisfied with advancement, recognition, working conditions, and interpersonal relationships. Teachers are just moderately satisfied with their salaries. There is a significant relationship between performance and organizational commitment, employee retention, and job satisfaction, and is also positive. The best predictors of teachers’ performance are affective commitment, interpersonal relationships, working conditions, advancement and normative commitment, and intent to stay. All these predictors have a positive and direct impact on teachers’ performance. The best model fit that explains teachers' job performance is Structural Model 5, anchored on organizational commitment, employee retention, and job satisfaction. Thus, the researcher recommends that DepEd should ensure that private schools maintain high standards and that teachers adequately be trained. Collaboration, reflection, and feedback help teachers improve their teaching skills and personal growth. School administrators and school principals can design programs and activities centered on improving the commitment, retention, and satisfaction of the teachers. Also, teachers might explore the importance of commitment in their schools.

1992

Based on a review of recent research on school effects and workplace psychology, this paper hypothesizes that three core concepts comprise teacher organizational commitment: (1) belief in school goals and student learning ability; (2) intention to remain an active member of the school; and (3) willingness to exert extra effort on the school's behalf. The academic literature and national reports assume that many public school teachers commitment to the proper means and ends of education. Since little is actually known on the subject, the study summarized in this paper develops and empirically tests an index of teacher organizational commitment and examines the organizational conditions, processes, and individual features affecting it. The study uses the High School and Beyond database derived from a nationally drawn stratified probability sample of 1,032 high schools; core data were gathered from the 1984 Administrator and Teacher Survey.

A Structural Equation Model of Organizational Commitment Among Public School Teachers

European Journal of Education Studies, 2023

Abstract: The desire of teachers to support students and assume responsibility for their education is embraced by the concept of teacher’s organizational commitment. The idea of teachers' organizational commitment embraces teachers' desire to assist students and take ownership of their education. To determine how happy they were with their positions, how they felt about the business culture, how balanced work and family life were, and how devoted they were to the organization, this study looked at 420 public school teachers in the Davao Region. Furthermore, it analyzed the associations between the factors. A structure-equation model was used to determine work-life balance, job satisfaction, and organizational culture that matched teachers' organizational commitment. The discoveries uncovered high degrees of hierarchical commitment, the balance between serious and fun activities, authoritative culture, and occupation fulfillment. Important relationships were between work-life balance, organizational commitment, and job satisfaction. Organizational culture and organizational commitment were also important relationships. Lastly, there was a good fit for the teachers' organizational commitment regarding work-life balance, organizational support, and professional pride. These factors included organizational culture, employee management, and strategic emphasis. Therefore, job satisfaction, organizational commitment, and work-life balance strongly influenced organizational commitment. In order to prevent teacher turnover in this profession, it was advised that schools always support teachers' ongoing professional development, which can be done through seminars and training.
