CERNAS ORTIZ, Daniel Arturo  e  NAVA ROGEL, Rosa María. Organizational Commitment and Grade Point Average in MBA Students: The Moderating Effect of Allocentric and Idiocentric Tendencies. REDIE [online]. 2019, vol.21, e26.  Epub 15-Abr-2020. ISSN 1607-4041.  https://doi.org/10.24320/redie.2019.21.e26.2122.

The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between organizational commitment and grade point average (GPA) in MBA students. We also analyzed whether the students´ allocentric and idiocentric tendencies moderate this relationship. A survey was carried out in the university in mention (n= 80). The results indicate that organizational commitment and GPA have a negative relationship that amplifies at high levels of allocentric tendencies and diminishes when idiocentric tendencies are high. In general, organizational commitment is desirable for organizations but it could have negative effects on the grades of those persons who simultaneously study and work.
