dc.description.abstractThe external obstacles, wellbeing and attitude of teachers in Nigeria’s Secondary School influence teachers’ commitment towards their job and minds of students. This study investigates the influence of organisational commitment and external locus of control on job involvement of public secondary school teachers in Oyo State. Caryl Rusbult theories of commitment, attribution and theory Z were adapted in the study. Using a descriptive survey design, the study employed multi-stage sampling procedure using simple random sampling technique to select a representative sample size of 2,187 teachers from 18 local government areas. Data collection involved structured questionnaires adapted from Rotter’s locus of control, Mowday, Steers and Porte organisational commitment, and Kanungo scales for job involvement. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics of percentages, means and frequencies, and multiple regression analysis. The results showed that there was a high level of teachers’ job involvement in the schools was obtained (mean = 3.31). The commitments of teachers to their organizations were high (mean= 2.98). External locus of control among teachers was high (mean= 2.98). There was a significant combined influence of organizational commitment and teachers’ external locus of control on job involvement (R2 =0.976, p < 0.05). Both external locus of control (β= 0.744; p < 0.05) and organisational commitment (β= 0.249; p < 0.05) have significant relative influences on job involvement among the teachers. Male teachers exhibited slightly elevated levels of job involvement compared to their female conterparts (F= 5.538, p < 0.05). Female teachers exhibited lower levels of control compared to the male counterparts (F = 6.018, p < 0.05). To foster teachers’ commitments to their organisations, school administrators should create an environment that nurture opportunities for professional growth, carry out continuous in-house training programme for enhancing teachers’ locus of control, pay attention to promotion and maintain good work motivation.
