Abstract
The present study was aimed at investigating the moderating role of perceived organizational politics between perceived organizational support, transformational leadership and internal locus of control with their attitudinal and behavior work outcomes among university teachers in Pakistan. This study also explored the relationship of gender, job status, educational sector, educational level and geographic location with perceived organizational politics, perceived organizational support, transformational leadership, internal locus of control, affective organizational commitment, normative organizational commitment, in-role job performance (self-reported), organizational citizenship behavior toward individuals, organizational citizenship behavior toward organization, turnover intention and occupational stress among university teachers in Pakistan. This study was divided into three phases. First phase of this study was aimed at adapting the scales used in this study. It included tryout, expert opinion and committee approach. Second phase of the study was comprised of the pilot study. Finally, third phase of the current study was comprised of the main study to test all the proposed relationships among the variables of this study. Sample of the pilot study included 138 university teachers while main study included 450 university teachers from Islamabad (Capital), Punjab, Sindh and Balochistan provinces. Descriptive analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, correlational analysis, multiple regression analysis, t-test and one way ANOVA were computed to measure the proposed relationships in the study. Correlational analysis showed perceived organizational politics to have a significant relationship with perceived organizational support, transformational leadership, affective and normative organizational commitment, in-role job performance (self-reported), organizational citizenship behavior toward organization, turnover intention and occupational stress among university teachers in Pakistan. Perceived organizational support and transformational leadership were shown to have significant relationship with affective and normative organizational commitment, in-role job performance (self-reported), organizational citizenship behavior toward organization, turnover intention and occupational stress among university teachers in Pakistan. Moderation analysis showed perceived organization politics only moderated the relationship of perceived organizational support with affective organizational commitment and in-role job performance (self-reported) among university teachers in Pakistan. Perceived organizational politics moderated the relationship of transformational leadership with affective organizational commitment, in-role job performance (self-reported), turnover intention and occupational stress among university teachers in Pakistan. While, perceived organizational politics only moderated the relationship of internal locus of control with affective organizational commitment among university teachers in Pakistan. It is worth mentioning that usually perceived organizational politics was not found to moderate as predicted, while it moderated in only a few of the proposed relationships.. It is also worth mentioning that all the scales used in this study are self-report measures. Analysis for the relationship of gender, geographic location, job status, educational sector and educational qualification with the study variables, limitations, suggestions and implications of the study are also discussed in detail. Suggestions for future research endeavors and implications of the current study for university teachers in Pakistan have also been discussed.
