Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of leader-member exchange(LMX) on employee's affective commitment and continuance commitment focusing on the mediating role of job stress. On the basis of theoretical linkages between the constructs, a conceptual model and hypotheses were established. The sample included 482 employees. Structural equation modeling(SEM) was employed to test the hypothesized relationships in the conceptual model. This study shows that the proposed model is reasonably fit to the actual data. Empirical results indicate that LMX has a negative impact on employee's job stress, has a positive impact on employees' affective commitment and continuance commitment. Employees' job stress has partially mediated effect on the relationship between LMX and employees' affective commitment, but has not mediated effect on the relationship between LMX and employees' continuance commitment.

본 연구의 목적은 리더-부하간 교환관계(LMX)가 조직구성원들의 정서적 몰입과 근속적 몰입에 미치는 영향을 직무스트레스의 매개효과를 중심으로 규명하는데 있다. 관련이론과 선행연구들을 기초로 하여 연구 모형과 가설들이 설정되어졌으며, 18개 회사 총 482명으로부터 획득한 데이터를 가지고 구조방정식 모형을 활용해 가설들을 검증하였다. 연구결과를 살펴보면 리더-부하간 교환관계는 조직구성원들의 직무스트레스에 대하여 유의미한 부(-)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며 조직구성원들의 정서적 몰입과 근속적 몰입에 대하여 유의미한 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 한편, 리더-부하간 교환관계와 조직구성원들의 정서적 몰입와의 관계에 있어서 직무스트레스는 부분매개역할을 하는 것으로 나타났지만, 리더-부하간 교환관계와 근속적 몰입과의 관계에 있어서는 직무스트레스가 매개역할을 하지 않은 것으로 나타났다.
