Abstract

Though organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) is not enforceable by any organization, it is a voluntary behavior of employees which promotes the effective functioning of any organization. Organizational citizenship behavior is a multi-dimensional concept. Due to individual behavior and prevailing circumstances, OCB may vary from one organization to another organization or from one section to another section. In line with that, the present study explores the instrument for assessing organizational citizenship behavior in primary and high school teachers in Amritsar. The study has used a descriptive research design and a quantitative approach. The analysis of the data was made with the help of the exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis. The analysis of the data clearly revealed the understanding of different dimensions of organizational citizenship behavior in the context of school education.
