description Abstract The purpose of this study is to investigate the level of target commitment in the DGT and the role of target setting theory in effecting this. This research uses Kwan et al. (2013) goal-setting questionnaire. The sample comes from 165 employees of the Directorate General of Taxes (DGT), Indonesia.
