ABSTRACT

In this paper, the theory of resource conservation is introduced to explore the influence of psychological contract on turnover intention of employees, and the mediating mechanism of organizational commitment is tested. Through the questionnaire survey of employees in high-tech enterprises in Xi’an City, we use the structural equation model for empirical research; the results shows that: 1) the transactional and the relational psychological contract has a significant impact on turnover intention; 2) organizational commitment plays a fully mediating role in the relationship between transactional psychological contract and turnover intention, and plays a partial mediating role in the relationship between relational psychological contract and turnover intention.
