Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to investigate the relationship between a challenging dimension of organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) and self-regulatory focus in an academic work setting. Job performance indicators were included to assess the nomological validity of regulatory focus measures.

Design/methodology/approach: Data were collected using a questionnaire conducted with 251 Spanish academic workers. The data were analyzed using structural equation modeling.
