Abstract:

Organisational behaviour (OB) is a concept found in all areas where there are individual-group relationships. Thus, OB includes the totality of human relations, a system that is in a permanent dynamic within the organisational structures. The research consists of statistical modelling of OB from the point of view of its orientation - on task, on relationships and one's own person, modelling weighted by a moderating factor - the online vs hybrid education system. Thus, the analysis contains two target groups - one that was subjected to a completely online environment and one group that was subjected to a hybrid environment. The modelling is performed by using the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) statistical method applied on two levels to reduce the input variables to the most important ones for the OB model. The two OB models for the two groups of respondents were compared, taking into account the projection of the online/hybrid learning environment on the OB. Research hypotheses verified in the current research were stated. The novelty elements of the paper are the application of the PCA method hierarchically, the application of statistical methods for OB modelling, the new perspective regarding the components of OB, the quantitative explanation of the effect of online/hybrid learning environment on OB.
