The Prediction of Employee Turnover in a Part-Time Military Organization.

Abstract

Three approaches to the prediction of turnover were compared. Job satisfaction, organizational commitment, and Fishbein's model predicted reenlistment intentions and reenlistment behaviors of 484 National Guardsmen with high accuracy. Moreover, Fishbein's model and organizational commitment predicted the reenlistment criteria more accurately than did job satisfaction. The implications of these results for organizational retention and the attitude-behavior relationships are discussed. (Author)
