Summary
The Study explores how Perceived Organizational Political Behavior (POPB) affect employee's Job Involvement (JI). Chang Chan Lin's (2002) Organizational Political Behavior Scale is tested. Through factor analysis, there are seven dimensions of POPB: Attacking Others, Power-Earning, Peaceful and Reasonable Behavior, Actively Expressing Opinions, Using Job Authority, and Using Expert Authority. In JI scale, Kanugo's (1982) ten-item scale is tested.
First, examine the relationship between the seven-dimension POPB and JI via Person Correlation. Second, knowing how POPB affect JI via multiple regression. Third, there are four cluster of POPB via cluster analysis, such as: Perceived Gaining Power and Preventing from Responsibility, Perceived Job-Authority Oriented, Perceived Passive Political Behavior, and Perceived Interpersonal Oriented. Finally, analyze how POPB affect JI via multiple regression in each cluster.
The result shows that POPB of Peaceful and Reasonable Behavior, Actively Expressing Opinions, and Using Expert Authority have positive effects on JI. Besides, different POPB can positively induce JI in different cluster: In Perceived Gaining Power and Preventing from Responsibility, Peaceful and Reasonable Behavior has mainly positive effect on JI. In Perceived Job-Authority Oriented, Using Expert Authority has mainly positive effect on JI. In Perceived Passive Political Behavior, Actively Expressing Opinions has mainly effect on JI. In Perceived Interpersonal Oriented, Using Expert Authority has mainly positive effect on JI.
