International research on a construct presupposes that the same measurement instruments are implemented in different countries. Only then can the results of the studies be directly compared to one another. We report on a study in which the English-language original of the Organizational Commitment Questionnaire (OCQ) as well as a German-language version of the OCQ was adapted into four further languages (Polish, Hungarian, Spanish, Malay) and validated. The employees of an international company were surveyed in seven countries (USA, Canada, Germany, Poland, Spain, Hungary and Malaysia). For purposes of validation, the job satisfaction, the self-rated job performance and the support of the employees in implementing the company values were used. The results show that the translations proceeded successfully. In all cases, a reliable scale emerges, which correlates positively with the validity criteria.
