Most extant research has focused on antecedent and consequence factors of citizenship behavior (CB) within organizations. The long-term lifetime effect of CB has rarely been researched. This study employed a questionnaire survey to collect respondents' perspectives of individual CB at different life stages. EFA was applied to explore the primary components of CB, i.e., altruism, conscientiousness, sportsmanship, and civic virtue. ANOVA and SEM were performed to examine the hypotheses in this study. The results demonstrated that CBs were influenced by gender, work status, and work experience. CBs also exerted a positive effect on safety behavior, although this effect was mediated by social reflection. Research theory and implementations were discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
