CERNAS ORTIZ, Daniel Arturo; MERCADO SALGADO, Patricia e LEON CAZARES, Filadelfo. Job satisfaction and organizational commitment: Test of measurement equivalence between Mexico and the United. Contad. Adm [online]. 2018, vol.63, n.2. ISSN 0186-1042. https://doi.org/10.22201/fca.24488410e.2018.986.
The purpose of this work was to estudied the measurement equivalence of a job satisfaction scale and an organizational commitment scale between the Mexican culture and that of the United States. The data were collected through a self-administered questionnaire that was applied to a sample of master’s degree students from both nations (Mexico = 287, United States = 273). The results indicated that the analyzed scales are not invariant between the cultures. One implication of this finding is that transcultural job satisfaction and organizational commitment studies can report invalid results regarding the direct comparison of the concepts. To avoid this, we recommend taking certain precautions in the preparation and the analysis of data.
