ABSTRACT
As a core part of organizational commitment, affective commitment has drawn more and more attention from scholars and practitioners.

This paper introduces the concept of affective commitment, summarizes the antecedent variables that affect affective commitment, explains employees’ behavior and attitude that are affected by affective commitment, and finally makes a prospect of the study on affective commitment in the future.
