Dear Dr. Meyer,
I would like to inform you that I am a student candidate for a PhD in Cyprus University of Technology and my subject relates to job satisfaction, leadership style and commitment of physicians in public hospitals in Cyprus.
I am interested in using the scale (OCQ) of the 18 questions (1993). I was wondering if there is a Greek version for it.
Could you please inform me how I can get this scale?
Thank you in advance
Ioanna Gregoriou
Here are the items.
Organizational commitment: Allen and Meyer, Journal of Occupational Psychology, 1990
I do not feel a strong sense of belonging to my organization.
I do not feel 'emotionally attached' to this organization.
I do not believe that a person must always be loyal to his or her organization.
I think that people these days move from company to company too often.
I enjoy discussing my organization with people outside it.
I do not feel like part of the family at my organization.
I would be very happy to spend the rest of my career with this organization.
I do not think that wanting to be a 'company man' or 'company woman' is sensible anymore.
I was taught to believe in the value of remaining loyal to one organization.
This organization has a great deal of personal meaning for me.
I really feel as if this organization's problems are my own.
I think that I could easily become as attracted to another organization as I am to this one.
Jumping from organization to organization does not seem at all unethical to me.
Things were better in the days when people stayed with one organization for most of their careers.
One of the major reasons I continue to work for this organization is that I believe that loyalty is important and therefore feel a sense of moral obligation to remain.
If I got another offer for a better job elsewhere I would not feel it was right to leave my organization.

Dear Ioanna Gregoriou,
You have already got the scale developed by Meyer provided by Mr. Kim.You can the change the statements in greek and use the same instrument without diluting its meaning.Moreover,go for reliability and validity check to ensure that instrument is still measuring the same thing which you are looking for.
The scale is openly and widely available at various platforms and it is converted in Greek by Markovitsz et.al
The paper is available at https://research.aston.ac.uk/portal/files/7037002/Organizational_commitment_profiles_and_job_satisfaction_among_Greek_private_and_public_sector_employees.pdf
You can ask the author to provide you Greek version of the scale in order to ensure reliability and validity.

Hello everyone, I wanted to ask if the Organizational Commitment Questionnaire
By Richard T. Mowday, Richard M. Steers, and Lyman W. Porter
( Source: Mowday, R.; Steers, R.; & Porter L. (1979). The Measurement of Organizational Commitment. The Journal of Vocational Behavior, 14, 224-247.)
Is permitted to be utilized in my dissertation proposal? I wasn't sure how to contact the authors or if this is permissible without their written permission?
Hi Christine Bellido maybe you can type their names to see if the authors are here researchgate members and text them privately. You can also search their email address in other journals that they have written. Did you try to search their contact info on the Internet? I am sure their email address is available. Good luck
I really love Organizational Commitment topic. I would like to read your dissertation!
Cristina Lorena Jones thank you for the info! I did! I tried looking everywhere. I did manage to get the authors of the text book that referenced these authors to see how they obtained permission and if I can also reference them as well. We shall see! I’ll be more than happy to share all my insight whenever I get this thing together LOL thanks again!
Christine Bellido most welcome. Hope you have received info. Cheers, Cristina
I'm also interested in using this tool for measuring OC of teaching staff in international schools. Did anyone find the contacts of the authors?
