A meta-analytic review of attitudinal and dispositional predictors of organizational citizenship behavior
TLDR
A quantitative review of 55 studies supports the conclusion that job attitudes are robust predictors of organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) as discussed by the authors, and the relationship between job satisfaction and OCB is stronger than that between satisfaction and in-role performance, at least among nonmanagerial and nonprofessional groups.Abstract:
A quantitative review of 55 studies supports the conclusion that job attitudes are robust predictors of organizational citizenship behavior (OCB). The relationship between job satisfaction and OCB is stronger than that between satisfaction and in-role performance, at least among nonmanagerial and nonprofessional groups. Other attitudinal measures (perceived fairness, organizational commitment, leader supportiveness) correlate with OCB at roughly the same level as satisfaction. Dispositional measures do not correlate nearly as well with OCB (with the exception of conscientiousness). The most notable moderator of these correlations appears to be the use of self- versus other-rating of OCB; self-ratings are associated with higher correlations, suggesting spurious inflation due to common method variance, and much greater variance in correlation. Differences in subject groups and work settings do not account for much variance in the relationships. Implications are noted for theory, practice, and strategies for future research on OCB.read more

Five dimensions of organizational citizenship behavior: Comparing antecedents and levels of engagement in China and the US
TL;DR: Li et al. as mentioned in this paper investigated differences between the US and China in employees' level of engagement in the five dimensions of organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) identified by Organ (1988), and the effects of perceived distributive justice and perceived supervisor support on OCB.

Organizing without formal organization: group identification, goal setting and social modeling in directing online production
TL;DR: Investigation of how combining group identification and direction setting can motivate volunteers in online communities to accomplish tasks important to the success of the group as a whole shows that publicizing important group goals via COTW can have a strong motivating influence on editors who have voluntarily identified themselves as group members.

Organizational Citizenship Behaviors as a Function of Empathy, Consideration of Future Consequences, and Employee Time Horizon: An Initial Exploration Using an In‐Basket Simulation of OCBs1
TL;DR: This paper found that individuals high in concern with future consequences were less likely to engage in OCBs when faced with a short-term time horizon, while those high in empathy were more likely to leave the company in 3 months.

Intra-individual Response Variability as an Indicator of Insufficient Effort Responding: Comparison to Other Indicators and Relationships with Individual Differences
TL;DR: The authors introduced the intra-individual response variability (IRV) index as an easily calculated and flexible way to detect insufficient effort responding (IER), and examined the extent to which various IER indices detect the same or different respondents engaging in IER behavior.

Development and validation of brief measures of positive and negative affect: The PANAS scales.
TL;DR: Two 10-item mood scales that comprise the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS) are developed and are shown to be highly internally consistent, largely uncorrelated, and stable at appropriate levels over a 2-month time period.

The big five personality dimensions and job performance: a meta-analysis
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the relation of the Big Five personality dimensions (extraversion, emotional stability, Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, and Openness to Experience) to three job performance criteria (job proficiency, training proficiency, and personnel data) for five occupational groups (professionals, police, managers, sales, and skilled/semi-skilled).

Validation of the five-factor model of personality across instruments and observers.

TL;DR: Two data sources--self-reports and peer ratings--and two instruments--adjective factors and questionnaire scales--were used to assess the five-factor model of personality, showing substantial cross-observer agreement on all five adjective factors.

Job Satisfaction and Organizational Commitment as Predictors of Organizational Citizenship and In-Role Behaviors:
TL;DR: In this paper, a factor analysis of survey data from 127 employees' supervisors supported the distinction between in-role behaviors and two forms of OCBs, and hierarchical regression analysis found two job cognitions variables (intrinsic and extrinsic) to be differentially related to the two types OCB.
