Abstract

Resilience, self-efficacy and organizational support are part of personal and work-related factors that contribute to positive human resource strengths that relates to affectively committed staffs in the workplace. For this reason, by using the norm of reciprocity along with the social exchange theory, this paper seeks to understand the relationship between resilience, self-efficacy and organizational support with affective commitment among support staffs in the context of Malaysian Research Universities. Data were gathered through questionnaires from 306 staffs in five universities in Malaysia. The regression result indicated that self-efficacy and organizational support had positively correlated relationship with affective commitment but resilience did not pose any substantial impact on this outcome. Implications of the finding and future research on these personal and work related factors with affective commitment in the context of Malaysian Higher Educational Institutions were also discussed.
