Side-Bet Theory in Organizational Commitment: A Field Study on “Examining The Diffrences Between Side-Bets and Employees’ Demographic Characteristics”

Abstract

Nowadays, firms become much more similar in terms of structure, technological and physical characteristics and as a result, the importance of human resources and retention of employees have increased. In order to maintain employee continuity, some steps had been taken and as one of these steps, organizatonal commitment, has come into prominence specifically. Up to date, commitment has been researched with different dimensions and point of views. As a result, a variety of ambiguities has occurred. Despite these ambiguities and different point of views, gaining employees’ commitment is still a common aim and problem of all organizations. In this study, it is aimed to investigate the relationship between demographic characteristics and commitment levels of military personnel with the light of “Side-Bet Theory”, which was come up with Howard Becker in 1960. Within this scope, Side-Bet Scale (Shore et al., 2000) was conducted on 92 military personnel serving to International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) on Multinational Airport in Kabul/Afghanistan. As a result of analyses, it is determined that military personnel’s’ commitment levels differ significantly according to their demographic characteristics.
