Abstract in topics:
- Purpose of the research: To analyze the influence of cooperative organizational identification on the organizational climate.
- Theoretical framework: Theory of Organizational Identity (Ashforth, & Mael, 1989)
- Methodology: A survey was carried out from an Organizational Identification scale built specifically for cooperatives together with a reduced scale of organizational climate adapted cross-culturally for cooperatives. Data analysis was performed using a quantitative approach, using the techniques of exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis.
- Results: The analysis of structural paths revealed that the ‘Group Adjustment’ construct is the one that most influences the Organizational Climate. The final validated model combined a second order construct, 4 first order constructs and 17 variables. The final results of the model demonstrated that the Organizational Climate is 83.7% explained by its Affective, Cognitive and Instrumental aspects.
- Originality: Cooperatives have several characteristics that differentiate them from conventional societies, and therefore they need theoretical constructs adapted to their reality. The differentiating characteristics of cooperatives are self-declared worldwide, but they have not been studied from the Theory of Organizational Identity.
- Theoretical and practical contributions: This research develops a new construct and scale called Cooperative Organizational Identity. The Organizational Climate scale was translated and cross-culturally adapted to the reality of Brazilian cooperatives.
Keywords: Organizational Identity. Organizational Identification. Organizational Climate. Cooperatives. Credit Unions.
