Carson and Bedeian's (1994) Career Commitment Measure was used to examine the relationships of career commitment with emotional intelligence and organizational citizenship behavior, which were then examined for relationships with organizational commitment. As predicted, emotional intelligence was positively related to career commitment, but not related to organizational commitment. Both types of commitments were positively related to organizational citizenship behavior and its underlying factor of civic virtue. However, career commitment was related to the sportsmanship and altruism factors, whereas organizational commitment was related to the involvement factor of organizational citizenship behavior. Further insight into these relationships was gained by exploring the three dimensions of the Career Commitment Measure. A respecified model examining emotional intelligence as an antecedent to career commitment with organizational commitment and organizational citizenship behavior factors as outcomes displayed a good fit to the data.
