Abstract

This study focuses on the relationships between career and psychosocial mentoring, and the employee outcomes of affective institution commitment (AIC), job commitment, and employee turnover. The relationships between psychosocial mentoring and the employee outcomes of AIC and employee turnover were significant. Building from affective events theory, it is found that AIC mediated the relationship between psychosocial mentoring and employee turnover. The study emphasizes the importance of emotion and affect by showing that employees who experienced positive mentoring events at work exhibited higher levels of AIC, which in turn led to reduced employee turnover.
