Abstract


The aim of this research is to determine the relationship between organizational justice and perceived organizational activity based on the mediating effect of job achievement motivation. The method of this research is descriptive-correlational. The population of the investigation included all professors in Mahallat Azad University (121 members) in the educational year of 2012-2013. Due to the small number of the population all of members were selected as sample. The data were collected through the library and survey method. The instrument of the research consisted of three researcher-made questionnaires: (a) Moreman and Niove (2001) organizational justice questionnaire (α=0.91); (b) the researcher-made organizational agility questionnaire (α = 0.89); (c) the researcher-made job achievement motivation questionnaire (α = 0.94). All questionnaires were set and calibrated according to 5-point Likert scale. To determine the content validity of the questionnaire, we consulted the experts. The data were analyzed through Pearson correlation and stepwise multiple regression methods. Generally the results of the research showed that there was a significant relationship between organizational justice in three dimensions (distributing, procedural, interactive) and organizational agility. The results also illustrated that the indirect influence of distributive justice on the enhancement of the perceived organizational agility was 0.019, the indirect influence of procedural justice on the enhancement of perceived organizational agility was 0.02, and the indirect influence of interactive justice on the enhancement of perceived organizational agility was 0.023. The results also showed that according to findings: RMSEA = 0.048, RMR= 0.029, GFI =0.96, AGFI =0.089, P (value) = 0.0072,df =2, =5.62, and illustrating the good fit of the case study.
