“…Past studies have demonstrated that organizational (Allen et al, 1994) and affective commitment (Allen and Rush, 1998) are positively related to reward recommendations, while manager perception of affective commitment is positively associated with promotability ratings. Thus, present study is the first to provide evidence that the employee's affective commitment is positively associated with supervisor's promotability judgments, suggesting that in addition to turnover, motivation and involvement, employee health and wellbeing, and citizenship behaviors (Gurbuz, 2008(Gurbuz, , 2009Meyer et al, 2002); affective commitment is also a predictor of promotability judgments.…”

The present study investigated the impact of task performance, affective commitment, impression management tactics, and similarity to supervisor on promotability judgments in a collectivist context (i.e., Turkey). Longitudinal and multisource field‐data obtained from 205 subordinates and their 35 supervisors indicated that task performance, affective commitment, and similarity to supervisor influenced supervisors’ ratings of promotability. Yet no significant relationships were found between IM tactics and the promotability judgments. Furthermore, the results revealed a stronger influence of similarity to supervisor on promotion decisions in a collectivist culture.

“…Blau, 1964;Gouldner, 1960). On the contrary, an autocratic (work focussed) leadership behavior which stems from the Theory X managerial assumptions (McGregor, 1960(McGregor, , 1967 can cause dissatisfaction with the leader (Bass, 1990;Bartolo and Furlonger, 2000;Riggio and Cole, 1992), lower affective commitment to the organization Allen, 1991, 1997;S¸ahin, 2012), and less organizational citizenship behaviors (Bass, 1990;Gurbuz, 2009;Organ, 1988;Podsakoff et al, 2000). In sum, we predicted that:…”

AbstractPurpose -The purpose of this paper is to investigate the influence of leaders' Theory X and Y managerial assumptions on subordinates' attitudes and behaviors. Design/methodology/approach -Military leaders (n ¼ 50) completed a questionnaire with Theory X and Y scale and their subordinates (n ¼ 150) completed a questionnaire with the scales of satisfaction with leader, affective commitment, and organizational citizenship behavior. The paper used hierarchical linear modeling to test the hypotheses. Findings -The results indicated that the Theory Y management style is significantly and positively associated with subordinates' satisfaction with the leader, affective commitment, and organizational citizenship behaviors. The Theory X management style had a significantly negative impact on subordinates' satisfaction with the leader, but no significant impact on affective commitment and organizational citizenship behavior. The findings of the present study suggest that the Theory X and Y managerial assumptions are a worthwhile basis from which to examine several important organizational and individual outcomes.Research limitations/implications -The sample consisted of military personnel and were predominantly male. This may limit the generalizability of the findings. Practical implications -The findings of the present study suggest that the Theory X and Y managerial assumptions are a worthwhile basis from which to examine several important organizational and individual outcomes. Originality/value -Although McGregor's (1960) Theory X and Y have contributed to management and leadership thinking and practice for many years; empirical studies examining the Theory X and Y managerial assumptions in a work environment are very scarce. By examining the effect of leader's Theory X and Y managerial assumptions on follower's attitudes and behaviors, the study provides important insights for leadership literature.

“…Gurbuz (2009) gave an in-depth definition of OCB as behavior that the organization does not require but that happens as a result of an individual's free will to help others progress or achieve a task. He identified five components of OCB: altruism, conscientiousness, sportsmanship, courtesy, and civic virtue.…”

“…Recent research on OCB reveals that OC, job satisfaction, and trust are leading determinates of OCB (Gurbuz, 2009). If employees feel there is a breach of their psychological job contract, they could be less committed to the organization and experience less job satisfaction and lower productivity (Coyle-Shapiro & Conway, 2005;DelCampo, 2007;Nadin & Cassell, 2007;Shahnawaz & Goswami, 2011).…”
