Abstract

The main objective of this research is to examine the interrelationships between job attitudes in the sports sector. Scopus, Web of Science, and ProQuest databases were used to find 3,844 studies. Three data sets were formed regarding the surveyed relationships. The data sets regarding these relationships included 5622, 3716, and 3798 subjects consecutively. According to the meta-analysis technique, the Comprehensive Meta-Analysis Software (CMA) was used to analyze the collected studies. The data of this meta-analysis includes 21 correlation values collected from the chosen studies. As the findings revealed, each data were heterogeneous. None of the data sets included publication bias. Results showed that all the effect sizes of the surveyed relationships are large. The most significant effect size is the relationship between job satisfaction and organizational commitment (r= .631). The correlation between job satisfaction and intent to quit is also significant, and its effect size is -.600, and the correlation between organizational commitment and intention to quit is also significant (r=-.508). The present research would be important for managers to successfully improve strategies for creating employee loyalty in the sports industry.
