Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Purpose: Understanding employee attitudes and behaviours has made possible the successful of organisation policies and strategies. Managers are often worried about to know the employee related factors. The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationships and predictive power of job satisfaction, organisational commitment and job promotion towards the employee career commitment in a developing country. Design/methodology/approach: The paper is based on a theoretical approach to identify the proposed relationships of job satisfaction, organisational commitment and job promotion variables with employee career commitment. This is a cross-sectional study where the researcher has used a self-administered survey questionnaire for data collection. Findings: The proposed approach is applied in a public sector organisation of a developing country. The findings of the paper hold that independent variables such as job satisfaction, organisational commitment and job promotion have positive and significant relationships to dependent variables, i.e. employee career commitment. Research limitations/implications: This study has methodological limitations, as it only employed quantitative data from a large public sector organisation of a developing country. In addition, only a direct relationship approach, with a limited number of variables is also limited in theoretical approach. However, this study contributes in the literature on organisational behaviour and employee commitment domain, particularly from a developing countries' perspective. This study may support the management and practitioners of human resources management and organisational behaviour in assessing and evaluating employee attitudes and behaviours in the organisation. Originality/value: The paper uses a quantitative approach in order to examine the employee attitudinal and behavioural variables towards employee career commitment. © Emerald Group Publishing Limited.
