Abstract: The author tries to investigate the impact of satisfaction with life scale (SWLS), family satisfaction (FS), perceived organisational support (POS) on affective commitment (AF) for both rural and urban women working in cooperative societies in Punjab. The author further analyse which is the most important factor making an impact on AF. Further comparison is made between the SWLS, FS, POS, on affective commitment of urban and rural women working in cooperative societies in Punjab. Social exchange theory is used to support the hypothesised relationships. The data consisted of 410 rural and urban women working in cooperative societies in Punjab. Regression and correlation have been used to test the hypothesised results. SWLS is not having significant impact on AC for both rural and urban women working in cooperative societies in Punjab. FS is having significant impact for rural women whereas the urban woman is not having significant impact on AC.
