Abstract
Organizational identification of the employees has a significant impact on the behaviors and attitudes of the organization’s employees. Therefore, the managers need to strengthen the employees’ organizational identification in order to overcome the environmental challenges. In fact, lack of sense of organizational identification is a huge obstacle on achieving the organization’s goals. Accordingly, understanding the effective factors on organizational identification has become a main task for the organizations’ managers. The current study aimed at evaluating the impacts of psychological empowerment on the employees’ organizational identification with regards to intermediary role of organization-based self-esteem. This study is of correlative type. The statistical population of the study included the employees of ministry of education in Tehran. Using the random sampling method, 306 employees were chosen. After designing the research instrument and confirmation of its validity and reliability, the Spearman test and structural equations model was used for data analysis. According to the results, the psychological empowerment was effective as an independent variable on organization-based self-esteem as an intermediary variable, and on organizational identification as dependent variable.
