Abstract:

Today, organizational citizenship behaviour is becoming a significant issue both in terms of adaptation of the organization to environmental changes and the positive effects on employee productivity and performance. The aim of this study is to examine whether social support is effective on organizational citizenship behavior. In the study, the relationship between social support (work-related and work-related sources) and organizational citizenship behavior (altruism, conscientiousness, courtesy, sportmenship and civic virtue) is discussed within the framework of sub-dimensions. The total of 302 personnel from different administrative units of Gaziantep University participated in the study. The research hypothesis was tested using descriptive statistics, factor analysis, correlation and regression analysis on the data obtained within the scope of the study. At the end of the study, it has been determined work-based and non-work-based (personal) support have an effect on sub-dimensions of organizational citizenship behavior (altruism, conscientiousness, courtesy, sportmenship and civic virtue).
