How Psychological Ownership Increases Subordinate Commitment in Islamic Spirituality Workplace? A Case of Indonesian Islamic Boarding School

Abstract

This study aims to determine the role of organizational-based Psychological Ownership (PO) in the relationship between Authentic Leadership (AL), Islamic Workplace Spirituality (IWS) and Affective Commitment (AC) of Kiai’s followers/subordinates in Pesantren in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Regarding the direct relationship between variables, some of the findings in this study include: AL is positively and significantly related to PO and AC; so is the relationship between IWS and PO; and the relationship between IWS and AC is found to be insignificant. As for the mediating role, PO is proven to fully mediate the relationship between AL - AC, and IWS - AC. This indicates that PO is one of the key factors in the formation of AC, especially in the relationship between IWS and AC. At the same time, as a novelty in this study, PO as a mediating variable between AL and AC is a new finding that previous studies have not used. This study also proposes some theoretical and practical implications that can be expected to benefit researchers and organizational leaders.
