“…In corroboration, Khalid et al (2013) found that intrinsic religiosity significantly predicted OCBO and extrinsic religiosity significantly predicted OCBI. This confirms the claim that intrinsic religiosity involves selfless behaviours targeted towards corporate good; while extrinsic religiosity involves self-centered behaviours aimed at securing personal benefits for the extrinsically religious employees.…”

“…For instance, Khalid, Rahman and Madar (2013) examined the role of religiosity on organisational citizenship behaviour among 237 undergraduates from an institution of higher learning located in the north of Peninsular, Malaysia. They found that intrinsic religiosity ( = 0.24, P 0.01) was a significant predictor of OCBO, while extrinsic religiosity ( = 0.29, P 0.01) was a significant predictor of OCBI.…”

Religiosity may be considered as a fundamental trait that defines Nigerians as a people. Although it is a concept that underlies all aspects of human behaviours, its impact on employees (r= -.136, p<0.01); extrinsic religiosity and organisational involvement (r= -.122, p<0.05; and a positive correlation between extrinsic religiosity and interpersonal relationship (r =.137, p<0.01). The result further revealed that intrinsic and extrinsic religiosity jointly predicted OCB ( = .050, F (2,356) = 9.303, p<.01). However, only the intrinsic religiosity dimension significantly contributed to employees' demonstration of OCB ( =.223, p<.01); extrinsic religiosity did not make significant contribution to employees' demonstration of OCB ( = -.036, p>0.05). It was concluded that the employees' intrinsic religiosity positively impact their demonstration of OCB in the workplace. Consequently, this study recommended management support of intrinsic religiosity within the purview of established work ethics.

“…Examples of student advocacy behavior include speaking positively about the class to outsiders and recommending the course to others (Mazen et al, 2008), continuously supporting the university's core and social activities (Khalid, Abdul Rahman, Madar, & Ismail, 2013), being willing to recommend the institution to others, staying in touch with the faculty, choosing the institution again for future study or joining the alumni groups (Brown & Mazzarol, 2009). Finally, feedback, which is constructed as a civic virtue in Podsakoff et al's (2000) seminal review, includes voluntary acts in which organizational members engage to make constructive suggestions for the sake of organizational improvements.…”

This study explores what constitutes students' satisfaction with university experience and examines the influence of overall satisfaction with the university experience on students' co-creation behavior -namely, participation behavior and citizenship behavior. Drawing upon a sample of 379 students and using structural equation modeling, the results suggest that perceived university reputation and perceived faculty competency are the key influential factors in determining students' satisfaction with university experience. The findings also provide empirical support to the direct role student satisfaction plays in enabling student participation and citizenship behavior. The results support the notion that student satisfaction mediates the relationship between the antecedent variables of perceived university reputation and perceived faculty competency, and student citizenship behavior. The findings have implications for universities seeking to compete in a complex marketdriven higher education setting.

“…The current study was motivated by two main reasons. First, the significance of OCB in academic setting has received limited empirical investigations (Khalid et al, 2012;Ang and Ramayah, 2010;Allison et al, 2001) compared to work organizations (Podsakoff et al, 2009). After over a decade when Oplatka (2006) opined that research on OCB in the context of education is limited, most recent attempts were skewed in favor of administrators (Farris, 2018;Eyupoglu, 2016) and faculties (Kagaari and Munene, 2007;Ertürk, 2007), implying the investigation of OCB of students within the higher education setup has largely been ignored (Khalid et al, 2010;Allison et al, 2001).…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the relationships between self-esteem (SE), university commitment and organizational citizenship behaviors (OCBs) within a higher education setup. Design/methodology/approach A convenience sample of 354 students in a three-year higher national diploma awarding technical university in Ghana participated in the study via the completion of self-administered questionnaires. Descriptive statistics and partial least square-based structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) were used to analyze data. Findings Path results using a PLS-SEM analysis showed a positive and significant association between SE and OCBs and university commitment among the students. Furthermore, OCBs were found to partially mediate the relationship between SE and university commitment. Practical implications The findings of the study provide important implication for management of higher education institutions. Management of higher education institutions must orient academic and non-academic staff to adopt communication strategies that help to improve students’ self-worth and assertiveness. All students should be encouraged to participate in extra-curricular activities in order to build students’ beliefs about themselves and self-confidence. Originality/value This paper is one of the first to have tested a model including SE, university commitment and OCBs in a technical university setup from a developing country perspective.
