Abstract
The present study aims to investigate the contribution of identification to proximal targets in the prediction of affective organizational commitment. Using three sets of cross-sectional data, we found that organizational identification mediates the impact of both occupational and workgroup identification on affective organizational commitment. We also examined the relationship between organizational identification and affective organizational commitment and their effects on two of their common outcomes, that is, job satisfaction and turnover intentions. Our results showed that affective organizational commitment mediates the effect of organizational identification on job satisfaction and turnover intentions.
