Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Organizational Citizenship Behavior: Its Nature, Antecedents, and Consequences examines the vast amount of work that has been done on organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) in recent years as it has increasingly evoked interest among researchers in organizational psychology. No doubt some of this interest can be attributed to the long-held intuitive sense that job satisfaction matters. Authors Dennis W. Organ, Philip M. Podsakoff, and Scott B. MacKenzie offer conceptual insight as they build upon the various works that have been done on the subject and seek to update the record about OCB. Key Features: Explores how OCB translates into objective measures of efficiency, profitability, customer satisfaction, and other criteria of organizational functioning Examines how important OCB is in other societal cultures and correlates findings from North American studies Addresses the relative importance of individual personality as a factor in determining OCB OCB has become a foundation for concepts in Organizational Studies. This book provides an all-encompassing resource for students, scholars, and practitioners looking for a comprehensive understanding on this key topic. It is an excellent textbook for advanced undergraduate and graduate students studying organizational behavior or organizational psychology in courses such as Strategic Human Resource Management, Measurement of Work Performance; Behavioral Organization Theory; and Social Psychology of Organizations.

Download or read book A Study of Organizational Citizenship Behavior OCB and Its Antecedents in an Indian Police Agency written by Hanif Qureshi and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Concerns have been raised that discretion available to police officers leads to its abuse. This work focuses on those officers who use discretion to enhance achievement of organizational objectives, even though these acts may not be role prescribed. In this first study of OCB among police officers in India, we determine the antecedents of these voluntary, pro-social behaviors (also called organizational citizenship behavior, or OCB) which help achieve legitimate work objectives and promote effective functioning of the organization. Positive psychology is an emerging discipline which focuses on what is good about human psychology in an effort to make life meaningful for a majority of people. The linkage of positive psychology with organizational behavior in police is used to drive home the point that there is much to be gained by focusing on positive workplace factors, though reducing the stressors is also important. We compare OCB research findings from US based studies in business organizations and also some studies from the criminal justice system, especially the police and corrections. The present study utilizes a survey of 829 police officers from two districts (Rohtak and Sonepat) conducted in 2013 in the state of Haryana in the Republic of India. The findings indicate that organizational justice, job satisfaction, task variables, and organizational commitment are strongly related to OCB. These findings relating to Indian police officers are similar to the findings related to Western officers. This suggests that these antecedents may be universally important predictors of OCB among police officers across cross-national contexts. However, some of the findings were unexpected. For instance, task routinization had a significant and positive relationship with OCB. The significance of these findings is discussed. Theory is developed to explain why measurement of OCB in police agencies should not necessarily be the same as the measurement of OCB in business organizations. An analysis of police roles is presented which indicates that various roles are played by the police in different situations. Therefore there may not be one omnibus OCB suitable for all police roles, but specific forms of OCB should be considered for different roles. The study found that the dimensions of OCB examined in this study have different antecedents, though affective commitment was a common antecedent across all OCB dimensions. This study supports the conclusion of LePine et al. (2002) who cautioned against simply combining the dimensions of OCB to create a composite OCB index, and argues that theories should be developed at the individual OCB dimension level and not at the aggregate OCB level. In an emerging economy like India, roles of police are rapidly expanding and there are many areas where ground rules are not yet set in place. In such a situation, it is important for police officers to take the initiative to go beyond their prescribed duties and take actions that can meet challenges successfully. Organizational citizenship behaviors by police officers can help achieve these tremendous challenges. The implications of increased OCB in police are discussed.

This book was released on 2014-02-24 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These articles describe ideas about contextual performance, organizational citizenship behavior (OCB), and similar patterns of behavior that have been developed by scholars working from very different research traditions. It seems that the different research traditions are converging on the same notion--that besides formal job requirements, other patterns of behavior are also critical for organizational effectiveness and survival. These other patterns of behavior have been relatively ignored until recently, but now scholars are trying to define them, determine exactly why and how they are important for organizations, and identify their antecedents. The results of these research efforts-- described by articles in this issue--will help to make it possible to develop new conceptual and practical tools for managing these important behaviors and in that way promote human performance and organizational effectiveness.

EI of the respondents has been self-reported, while OCB has been superior rated. The outcomes indicated that there is positive relationship between OCB and EI and EI significantly predicted OCB of the respondent after controlling for the demographic variables. Among OCB dimensions, sportsmanship and courtesy emerge as statistically significant; while among EI dimensions, utilization of emotions and managing own emotions have been found as greatest contributors.
