Justice Perceptions and Organizational Citizenship Behavior: The Moderating Role of Positive Affectivity

2019-12-30
Discretionary behaviors that are not dictated by formal job descriptions but that help the organization attain its objectives are commonly labelled as organizational citizenship behaviors (OCB). The extant OCB literature is limited, because most proposed models lack an integrative approach that considers both individual and organizational antecedents and their interactions. The present study attempts to fill this gap in the literature by proposing and testing a model of OCB that brings together organizational justice perceptions and positive affectivity and their joint effects. Drawing upon theoretical frameworks such as equity theory, social exchange theory and affect infusion model, this study proposed and tested a moderation model. The results indicated that positive affectivity was the significant determinant of OCB. Limitations and implications were discussed.

Moderating effect of perceived situational strength on the relationship between the dark triad and counterproductive work behaviors
Koçoğlu, Öykü; Toker, Yonca; The Department of Psychology (2020)
Counterproductive Work Behaviors (CWBs) can be defined as intentional and harmful behaviors of employees that are against the organization, members of the organization or both. The literature provides a link between CWBs and the Dark Triad personality traits which consist of three antagonistic traits: Machiavellianism, narcissism, and psychopathy. Individuals who are high on the Dark Triad characteristics engage in more deviant workplace behaviors than their non-dark themed counterparts. It was hypothesized...
