Comprometimento organizacional à luz das gerações baby boomers, x e y: estudo de caso do Centro de Ciências eTecnologia (CCT) e Centro de Humanidades (CH) da Universidade Federal de Campina Grande.

Abstract

Organizational commitment can be evidenced as a psychological state characterized by the connection between individual and organization, while the study of generations makes it possible to understand the characteristics of individuals in the context-time variable. In this sense, this article has the objective to identify relationships between the bases of organizational commitment and the baby boomers generations, X and Y of technicaladministrative servers of the Centre of Science and Technology (CCT) and The Humanities Centre (CH) of the Federal University of Campina Grande (UFCG). Characterized as a descriptive research with a quantitative approach, the object of the study was the university mentioned. It was used a questionnaire, as an instrument of research, containing the Baseline Scale of Organizational Commitment Revised (EBACO-R) proposed by Trigueiro-Fernandes et al (2016) and originally developed by Medeiros (2003). The sample was collected for convenience, being of non-probabilistic type, having 42 interviewees. The results show that there are conceptual similarity relations between the CO bases and the baby boomers and X generations (having the affective basis as the best approximation). We did not find an approximate assumption of the relationship between CO bases and generation Y. Finally, it would be possible to construct management practices of CO segmented by generations in the studied reality.
