Abstract

Both the Survey of Perceived Organizational Support and the Organizational Training Support Index focus on employee perceptions of organizational support. The present research asked three specific questions related to the relationship between these instruments and their respective constructs. A positive, moderate relationship was found between the two items. Additionally, the present research indicates similar reliability coefficients between the two instruments. Finally, neither gender nor education levels were found to mediate differences between the constructs.
