Abstract

This research aimed to (1) study the level of organizational commitment among government teachers at Mathayom Thanbin Kamphaeng Saen School; and (2) compare personal characteristics with organizational commitment among these teachers based on gender, age, and academic rank. The sample group consisted of 95 government teachers. The research instrument was a questionnaire with a reliability coefficient of 0.946. Data were analyzed using frequency, percentage, mean, and standard deviation. The non-parametric Two-sample independent test was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test, and the non-parametric K-sample independent test was performed using the Kruskal-Wallis H Test (non-parametric ANOVA). The research findings revealed that (1) the overall organizational commitment of government teachers at Mathayom Thanbin Kamphaeng Saen School was at the highest level. The mean scores, in descending order, were pride in being part of the organization, willingness and dedication to work for the organization, loyalty to the organization, desire to remain a member, and willingness to sacrifice for the organization. (2) When comparing personal characteristics with organizational commitment, there was no significant difference by gender. However, when categorized by age, there were statistically significant differences at the .05 level regarding willingness and dedication to work for the organization, loyalty to the organization, and willingness to sacrifice. When categorized by academic rank, no significant differences were found.
