Abstract

The empirical analyses performed within this book shed light on a number of interesting findings relevant to gaining a better understanding of the notion of organizational identification. In this chapter, I discuss all these empirical findings in relation to the propositions and arguments presented in the wider literature on psychological bonds between individuals and organization. Specifically, the chapter sets out to highlight the impact of organizational identification by discussing contextual performance elements as potential importance indicators for university settings. The three key frameworks organizational scientists frequently adopt to explain the occurrence of organizational identification are also discussed in light of the empirical findings, before the role played by biases associated with common method variance is considered. Lastly, the chapter accentuates the key theoretical contributions and advancements this book makes to the study of organizational identification and offers a final visualization of the Coalescence Model of Organizational Identification.
