Organizational Citizenship Behavior, Reciprocity, Job Insecurity, Impression Management, Honesty-HumilityAbstract
This study provides insights about the relationship between job insecurity, honesty-humility, and reciprocity and organization citizenship behavior, whereas impression management plays its role of a mediator. Data collected using a questionnaire from 710 contractual employees from public and private sector universities of southern Punjab, Pakistan. Exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis are used for scale validation and regression analysis to test the following hypothesis. A comparative analysis was conducted to know citizenship behavioral intentions of public and private sector contractual teaching staff. A T-test approach was utilized for comparing two samples. No significant difference among private and public sector teaching staff was found regarding organizational citizenship behavior. All other hypothesis, directly and indirectly, were supported with positive impacts, except job insecurity which found having a negative direct relation with both impression management and organization citizenship behavior. The study provides useful insights for both academicians and universities’ administration.
