Abstract
This study examined the relationships between organizational loyalty, professional commitment, and research productivity of 84 professors at a large Midwestern university. Likert scales and counts of publications were used to measure the predictor and criterion variables. These relationships were examined using multiple linear regression to test for unique contribution of organizational loyalty and professional commitment to the variance in research productivity. Loyalty was found to be unrelated to productivity, and its interaction with professional commitment provided no explanation of unique variance in research productivity over the main effect of professional commitment. Those researchers with the strongest professional commitment had higher research productivity.Keywords
