The Relationship between Organizational and Managerial Support and Organizational Commitment: A Survey of Isfahan City Police Officers

The connection between organizational and management support، on the one hand، and organizational commitment of police officers، on the other، has received little attention within police research. Hence، the aim of this study was to determine the civilian and uniform forces of Isfahan city police forces’ organizational commitment and also to examine its relationship with organizational and managerial support. Results suggest that organizational commitment of both civilian and uniform forces is at high level but the commitment of civilians is higher than uniform forces. Moreover، Pearson Correlation Coefficient analyses revealed that there is a positive and significant relationship between organizational and managerial support of both groups of forces and their organizational commitment. Implications for managers and research on organizational and management support and organizational commitment are discussed.
