In the authors’ words
The article’s own abstract.
This meta-analytic study examines the relationship between job embeddedness and turnover intention in Thailand and Indonesia. Through the analysis of 22 independent samples consisting of 8,196 participants, the aim is to determine the universal applicability of job embeddedness as a predictor of employee turnover. Using the Hunter and Schmidt method, ensuring methodological rigor and accuracy in the estimation and interpretation of effect sizes, the study finds a significant negative association between job embeddedness and turnover intention ( r = −.44). The dimensions of fit and sacrifice are both negatively correlated with employees’ decision to quit ( r = −.27 for both), while the dimension of link does not exhibit such a relationship. Organizational embeddedness and community embeddedness are both negatively associated with turnover intention, with organizational embeddedness being a stronger predictor. The moderating effect of gender on the relationship between job embeddedness and turnover intention is not supported. The study concludes by discussing the theoretical and practical implications of the findings, highlighting the need for further empirical research on job embeddedness and turnover intention in the Southeast Asian context.
