Abstract
The research aimed to test a model of work passion of state enterprise employees. The sample consists of 195 state enterprise employees. The data was collected by using the work passion of state enterprise employees. The data was analyzed using a statistics program that includes frequency percentage, mean, standard deviation, minimum, maximum, and second-order confirmatory factor analysis. The research results were found as follows: 1) Index of items: the objective congruence of this scale ranged from 0.60 to 1.00. 2) Discrimination on this scale ranged from 0.521 to 0.882. 3) The reliability of this scale was 0.967. 4) The results of the second-order confirmatory factor analysis showed that the work passion of state enterprise employees had five factors: intent to stay, organizational commitment, job commitment, discretionary effort, and employee endorsement. The work-passion model of state enterprise employees was consistent with the empirical study. (2= 293.295, df = 249, GFI = 0.903, AGFI = 863, CFI = 989, Nfi = .930, IFI = 989, RMSEA = .030, RMR = .025)
