Abstract: | This article studies the leader–member exchange (LMX) by examining employees who are supervised by more than one boss using data from 122 PhDs from a Dutch university. This study had three research objectives. First, to investigate the effects of PhDs' LMX with both their promoter and their assistant promoter on affective organizational commitment (AOC), second, to investigate the mediating role of satisfaction with human resource (HR) practices in the two LMX-AOC relationships. The third objective was to investigate whether the LMX-AOC relationship is stronger for the promoter than for the assistant promoter. The findings indicated that both promoter LMX and assistant promoter LMX were positively related to PhDs' AOC, and both relationships were fully mediated by PhDs' satisfaction with HR practices. |
