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

The Use of Communication Technologies After Hours: The Role of Work Attitudes and Work-Life Conflict
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated how the use of communication technologies beyond normal work hours relates to work-related attitudes and work-to-life conflict and found that employees with higher ambition and job involvement were more likely to use communication technologies after hours.

Affective commitment to the organization, supervisor, and work group: Antecedents and outcomes
TL;DR: In this paper, three longitudinal studies investigated the usefulness of distinguishing among employees' affective commitments to the organization, the supervisor, and the work group, and found that affective commitment to these entities were factorially distinct and related differentially to their theorized antecedents.

Examining the roles of job involvement and work centrality in predicting organizational citizenship behaviors and job performance
TL;DR: The authors found that job involvement, when assessed with a recently published measure, is a significant predictor of supervisor ratings of organizational citizenship behaviors (OCB) and in-role performance, controlling for work centrality and other individual difference variables.

Research Note---The Impact of Community Commitment on Participation in Online Communities
TL;DR: A model that brings dissimilar rationales into a single conceptual framework and shows the validity of each rationale in explaining different online behaviors is offered, developing hypotheses that explain how each form of commitment to a community affects the likelihood that a member will engage in particular behaviors.

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).

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.
