Popis: | 92 In the past ten years or so, burgeoning electronic media have kept extending and created a changing media environment where the traditional printed media are facing unprecedented challenges. Mass media in Taiwan can barely survive in a competing condition and, as a result, operating and managing a newspaper office is getting more difficult than before. In the rapidly changing media, one should pay close attention to organization commitment of editors and reporters standing in the front line of producing and making news report and the effects of daily job stress and job satisfaction on it. The research focuses on the case study of editors and reporters of China Times Editorial Department. To facilitate my study, I formulate a questionnaire based on job stress, job satisfaction and organization commitment measurement table. After the sampling survey of one hundred and forty six study objects, I use SPSS statistics software to analyze relationship among three major variables, namely, organization commitment, job stress, job satisfaction and demography. What I find out are editors and reporters in the case showing middle to high level organization commitment and middle to high level job stress and job satisfaction. Secondly, job stress mainly originates from “overload works” and the most satisfied part in the job is “colleagues relationship.” Besides, “hard working commitment” reflects the highest loyalty end in organization commitment spectrum. The other dimensions in organization commitment include: “that I am willing to pursue up-to-date and better knowledge and ability for improving what I achieve in the journalism office”, “I am ready to work hard to win my colleagues’ respect”, “I am able to focus on my position,” and “I am willing to do extra work to make the newspaper run more successfully”. What I find out from literature review are as followings. First, there is positive relationship between e job stress and job satisfaction of media editors and reporters on the one hand, and the extent of organization commitment on the other hand. Moreover, I find out that job satisfaction is a major index having influence on organization commitment from all sorts of research into organization commitment theories. The research suggests a business and its administrator or manager should endeavor to promote morale and job satisfaction of employees and then further the loyalties to the organization. Comparatively, it is good for forwarding the whole organization efficiency. |
