In the present article, a search for antecedents of organisational commitment in quality of work life, self-efficacy, and job satisfaction among university teachers was made. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was used to assess the fit of the model that identified quality of work life, self-efficacy, and job satisfaction statistically significant correlates and antecedents of organisational commitment. Our models provided a good fit. Direct and indirect effects of exogenous variables on endogenous variables were estimated and resultant percent of variance accounted into organisational commitment was reported. Implications and suggestions for future research were proposed.These findings provide the knowledge for mangers to set an eye on these psychological variables as valuable factors to enhance commitment of employees.

This study examined quality of work life (QWL), self-efficacy (SE), and job satisfaction (JS) as predictors of organizational commitment (OC) among university teachers. A representative sample of 300 teaching staff using stratified random sampling was selected. Keeping in view nature and objectives of the present research, zero order correlation and OLS multiple linear regression analyses (model with the best-fit predictor) was carried out. Correlation analyses indicated that QWL, SE, and JS were positively and significantly correlated with OC. Multiple linear regression analyses showed that overall QWL, SE, and JS passed on the criteria to predict the OC. The goodness of fit of the model (R2 change) was determined to predict the OC. The coefficient of determination was 23%, 6%, 1%, for overall QWL, SE, and JS respectively and altogether 30% variance was explained in OC. Further, effect size for each significant predictor was estimated and passed on the criteria of requisite value. Implication and suggestion for future research discussed.Keywords
