During the lockdown, universities were forced to go online, and academics started working from home. This new environment might have impacted academics’ motivation and, subsequently, their turnover intention and intention to remain in their universities. Guided by the affective events theory, we aimed to examine these longitudinal effects. We collected data from academics in Malaysia at three time points, namely the beginning of the lockdown (April), the end of the lockdown (June), and two months after the lockdown (August) in 2020. In addition, we considered previous higher education experience, age, and academic rank as time-invariant covariates in our model and applied latent growth curve modeling to analyze the data. For this purpose, we used the EQS 6.4 statistical package.enHuman resources in academic organizationsAcademic motivationIntention to remainTurnover intentionLatent growth curve (LGC) modelingCovid-19 lockdownIngenieurwissenschaftenConference Paper10.21125/edulearn.2022Gómez Chova, LuisLuisGómez ChovaLópez Martínez, AgustínAgustínLópez MartínezCandel Torres, IgnacioIgnacioCandel TorresConference Paper
