Abstract

The main purpose of this study was to find antecedents of organizational citizenship behavior(OCB) and to investigate the mediating role of leader-member exchange(LMX). This study categorized the factors that influence OCB and LMX into individual(distributive and procedural justice), group(transformational leadership and team empowerment), and organizational levels(complexity). A total of 773 cases were used in this study, which were collected in one of industrial complexes. The research participants were any employees who participated in their work by collaborating with their co-workers. This study found that procedural justice, transformational leadership, and team empowerment had positive influences on OCB, and distributive justice, procedural justice, transformational leadership, team empowerment, and complexity significantly influenced LMX. Moreover, LMX played a mediating role in the relationship between each of the five input variables and OCB.

본 연구는 조직시민행동의 선행요인을 찾고, 그리고 LMX(leader-member exchange)의 매개역할을 살펴보는 것이다. 선행연구 검토를 통해 본 연구는 조직시민행동과 LMX에 영향을 미치는 요인을 개인(분배, 절차 공정성), 그룹(변혁적 리더십, 팀 임파워먼트), 그리고 조직(조직구조의 복잡성)수준으로 분류하였다. 산업단지 공단에 근무하는 종업원들을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였고, 총 773부의 설문지가 실증분석에 사용되었다. 실증분석 결과, 절차적 공정성, 변혁적 리더십, 그리고 팀 임파워먼트가 조직시민행동에 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 분배공정성, 절차공정성, 변혁적 리더십, 팀 임파워먼트, 조직구조의 복잡성은 LMX에 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 게다가 LMX는 5개의 독립변수(분배공정성, 절차공정성, 변혁적 리더십, 팀 임파워먼트, 조직구조의 복잡성)가 조직시민행동에 미치는 영향관계에서 매개역할을 하는 것으로 나타났다. 연구결과를 바탕으로 연구의 시사점과 한계점 등에 대해서도 논의하였다.
