Abstract

This research aims to examine the impact of faculty members’ learning organization perceptionsto the organizational commitment through quantitative method. The study group consists of 172faculty members working in two universities, which are private (Zirve University) and public (Har-ran University) ones. The research results show that faculty members working in private universityhave a higher level of learning organization perceptions than faculty members in public universityand feel a higher level of commitment to universities which they work. Results also indicate thatprivate university’s faculty members’ perceptions of learning organization dimensions with per-ceptions of levels of organizational commitment (except for commitment based on compliance),in all dimensions, were more positive than those working in public university. Also, the dimensionof reinforced employees from learning organization dimensions negatively predicts organizationalcommitment based on compliance and the dimensions of team learning and shared systems po-sitively predict the organizational commitment based on identification. Especially, the dimensionof shared systems constitutes a more powerful effect on the commitment on the level of identifi-cation. Finally it was found that none of the learning organization dimensions made a significantimpact on organizational commitment based on internalization.
