Abstract: | The "good soldier" syndrome, or organization citizenship behavior (OCB), is traditionally defined as extra-role behavior which serves to advance the purposes of the organization. However, these behaviors may be ethical or unethical. This study examines the relationship btw. ethics and organization citizenship, and found high correlations, with "more ethical" individuals being rated higher on OCB. Results suggest that the phenomenon popularized as OCB may be the manifestation of ethical behavior in the workplace. |
