This study examined the effects of work values and the career decision level on the major commitment of the university students majoring in social welfare. For this purpose, a survey of 351 undergraduate students majoring in social welfare at 4 universities located in Kangwon-do was conducted and the data were analyzed. The work values consisted of intrinsic values and extrinsic values. The career decision level was measured by the career decision scale (CDS) and the major commitment was measured by the flow state scale (FSS). The research findings are as follows. First, the career decision level (3.43) and major commitment (3.58) of the university students majoring in social welfare were slightly higher than the mid-point on the 5 point Likert scale. In addition, the intrinsic work value (4.05) were higher than the extrinsic work value (3.34). Second, the intrinsic work values and career decision level were positively correlated with the major commitment. Third, the extrinsic work value had a negative effect on the major commitment (${\beta}=-.34$, p<.001); however, the intrinsic work value (${\beta}=.31$, p<.001) and career decision level (${\beta}=.18$, p<.001) had a positive effects on the major commitment. This paper also discusses the theoretical and practical implications for university student's work values, career decision level, and major commitment based on the research findings.

This study was performed to improve the working conditions of female nurses by comparing their organizational commitment and turnover intention according to the type of work shift they prefer. This study is a descriptive survey study, and data were collected by conducting an online survey of 465 female nurses working in three shifts at seven medical institutions. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS WIN 24.0 in a χ² test, a two-sample independent t-test, a pearson correlation and MANCOVA. The result shows that the group of nurses preferring fixed work shift had higher organizational commitment at higher ages and had higher turnover intention if they had an experience of transferring to another medical institution. The study also found that the group that prefers fixed work shift had lower organizational commitment and higher turnover intention than the group of nurses preferring shift work. The nursing department in hospital should strive to improve the working environment in female nurses by developing various types of work, with an aim to increase the organizational commitment of female nurses preferring fixed work and reduce their turnover.

The sample of this study consisted of 474 dental hygienists who work at general hospitals, university hospitals, dental hospitals and clinics across the nation. Data were collected with self-administered questionnaires and analyzed using hierarchical regression technique. It was found that: (1) job significance have a significant positive effect on the occupational commitment of dental hygienists; (2) role conflict, workload, routinization, and type of work site have significant negative effect on the occupational commitment of dental hygienists; (3) the study model explains 23.7% of the variance in occupational commitment among dental hygienists.

Job satisfaction had significantly difference by the age (p<0.05), annual salary (p<0.001), and turnover intention (p<0.001). Organizational commitment showed significantly (p<0.001) difference by age, work experience, and annual salary. There was positive correlation (p<0.001) between organizational commitment and job characteristics, job satisfaction. Organizational commitment had significantly positive correlation with skill variety (p<0.001), feedback (p<0.01), and task significance (p<0.001) of job characteristics, with work (p<0.001), pay (p<0.001), and co-workers (p<0.001) of job satisfaction. Job characteristics (${\beta}=0.249$, p<0.001) and job satisfaction (${\beta}=0.380$, p<0.001) had positive influences on the organizational commitment(p<0.001). In sub factors of job satisfaction, work (${\beta}=0.291$, p<0.001) and pay (${\beta}=0.252$, p<0.01) had positive influences on organizational commitment. Conclusion: To develop the organizational commitment, hospital managers need to reinforce responsibility and fulfillment by job enrichment and to consider increasing salaries to get a higher satisfaction from foodservice employees.

A causal model of organizational commitment on the basis of Western literature was tested with a sample of 1,164 employees from two university hospitals in Korea. The model contains three groups of determinants : environmental variables(job opportunity, spouse support, and parent support), psychological variables(met expectations, work involvement, positive affectivity, and negative affectivity), and structural variables(job autonomy, work unit control, routinization, supervisor support, coworker support, role ambiguity, role conflict, workload, resource inadequacy, distributive justice, promotional chances, job security, job hazarda, and pay). The data were colleted with questionnaires and analyzed with the LISREL maximum likelihood method. It is found that (1) the following variables, listed in order of size, have significant total effects on organizational commitment : job satisfaction, met expectations, supervisor support, job security, routinization, job opportunity, negative affectivity, work involvement, distributive justice, and promotional opportunity, (2) the model explains fifty-nine percent of the variance in organizational commitment, and (3) the link with expectancy theory is justified by the results for met expectations. Two conclusions can be drawn from these findings. First, the model of organizational commitment appears to be generalizable to Korean hospitals. Second, the model of organizational commitment should include such theoretical variables as environmental, psychological, and structural factors.
