Validating Suburban Teachers’ Commitments: Let’s Appreciate Their Blood, Sweat, and Tears

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to create a model for measuring suburban teachers' commitments in Kelantan, Malaysia. In this quantitative analysis, a cross-sectional study design was adopted. A total of 182 teachers from elementary schools in the Pasir Puteh district of Kelantan were selected using a stratified random sample procedure to complete the online questionnaire. The data was gathered and evaluated using SEM AMOS, which revealed that 19 of the 24 indicated behaviours are acceptable. Finally, the study's findings effectively verified and validated three constructs: affective commitment, normative commitment, and continuance commitment, and effectively developed a measurement model of suburban teachers' commitments in Kelantan. The outcomes of this study can be used to assess teachers' commitment to their profession. Following that, the Ministry of Education (MOE) can design relevant courses or workshops to assist instructors in gaining a better knowledge of instructors. dedication Future scholars are also encouraged to do research in other Malaysian states so that the study's findings may be generalised.
