Political behavior prevails in organizations. Recently, organization researchers dedicate themselves to the issues related to perceptions of organization politics. The motivation of those organization studies is nothing more than the willingness of improving organization commitment, in turns to enhance long-term competitiveness in organizations. This study is based on the Revised Model of Perceptions of Organizational Politics, Ferris et al (2002), to discuss the relationship among perceptions of organizational politics, organizational commitment, job satisfaction and organizational cynicism. The study also examines whether the perceptions of organizational politics through mediating effects, job satisfaction and organizational cynicism, will influence organizational commitment.

1.For the influence of perceptions of organizational politics to organization commitment: ¡§general political behavior¡¨ shows a significant positive correlation; for ¡§go along to get ahead¡¨, it is not notable; regarding ¡§pay and promotion policies¡¨, it represents significant negative correlation..
