ABSTRACT

The study examined organisational and psychological factors as correlates of job performance of personnel in private university libraries. Descriptive research design was adopted in the study. The total population of the study comprised of 83 respondents in the 8 private universities in South-South Nigeria. Since the population was small, total enumeration sampling technique was employed. The instrument adopted for the collection of data was the questionnaire. The questionnaire was structured based on 4-point Likert scale of Strongly Agree, Agree, Disagree and Strongly Disagree. Of the 83 copies of questionnaires administered, 73 (94.0%) were found valid for analysis. The data collected were used to test the eight null hypotheses at 0.05 level of significance. The results of the study showed that organisational factors (organisational culture and organisational commitment) are stronger corrolates of job performance among personnel in private university libraries in South-South Nigeria than psychological factors (work motivation and self-esteem).
