Abstract
BACKGROUND: This study aims to provide researchers and practitioners with a more elaborate instrument to measure turnover intentions based on the planned behaviour theory model. The questionnaire assesses 5 distinct aspects of turnover intentions (i.e., subjective social status, organisational culture, personal orientation, expectations, and career growth). METHODS: In this cross-sectional study (comprise of 2 studies in one) a wave survey design was applied to a large diversity of workers drawn from the staff of universities, banks, hospitals, factories, and telecommunication companies. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was applied the identify the sub-dimensions and Cronbach's alpha to assess the reliability of the first study. In the second study, for the Confirmatory factor analysis to establishing structural model of the dimensions. RESULTS: We demonstrate the reliability, factor structure, and validity evidence based on internal structure and relationship with other variables of the new measure among two samples (N(1) = 622; N(2) = 433). Twenty-five items with 5 factors were extracted to represent a broader perspective of turnover intention scale. CONCLUSIONS: In total, the study indicates that the assessment can be used to reliably assess several major indicators of turnover intentions. Therefore, improved employees' evaluations and reduced loss of valuable staff as a result of avoidable measures in considering the interests of workers.
