The influence of job and career attitudes on learning motivation and transfer

Proposes a model of learning transfer that shows the relationships between job involvement, career commitment and learning motivation and their impact on learning transfer. Tests this model, and the hypotheses on which it is based, by surveying graduates from a part-time Masters of Business Administration (MBA) course in Hong Kong (receiving 81 usable responses). Indicates the measures used to ascertain the graduates' levels of job involvement, career commitment, learning motivation and learning transfer, and presents the results of the analysis. Finds that career commitment was significantly related to both learning motivation and learning transfer but that job involvement was not. Discusses the practical implications of this study.
Quality focus says: A theoretical article with applications in practice.
