Although researchers have extensively studied organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) in the U.S. context, OCB measurement has received relatively limited attention in other contexts, specifically in the French-language context. Using 2 samples (for Study 1, N=292; for Study 2, N=355), the author investigated OCB in a French-language context. Using an exploratory factorial analysis in Study 1, the author found a 4-factor model (altruism, civic virtue, sportsmanship, helping others). Using a confirmatory factor analysis in Study 2, the author confirmed a 4-factor model. Data provided results that show some differences and similarities between U.S. and French contexts.

Background: The Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey (MBI-GS) is the leading measure of burnout for all occupations. The MBI-GS9, the 9-item version of the MBI-GS, was formulated based on the MBI-GS and has been used for several years. However, very few studies have systematically tested its psychometric properties, and none have focused on care aides working in nursing homes who are susceptible to burnout.

Researchers have examined the effects of campus ostracism on students' perceptions, attitudes, and behaviors. However, little is known about the relationships between campus ostracism and student organizational citizenship behavior (OCB). Drawing on social identity theory, we aim to develop and test a moderated mediation model regarding perceived insider status (PIS) as a mediator and resilience as a moderator to explain how and when campus ostracism influences student OCB.

State authorities in Europe invest immense resources in what the EU insists on calling the 'fight against illegal migration'. Based on ethnographic research in two German cities, this paper shows that a tough approach towards illegalised migration can only be implemented through state practices that operate at the margins of, or even cross, the boundaries of what is legally permissible. This argument is developed through an analysis of informal practices that frontline staff in registry offices and migration administrations deploy to prevent, or at least disturb, illegalised migrants' attempts to regularise their status by becoming the parent of child that is entitled to German citizenship.

Findings from 122 supervisor-employee dyads showed that employees' other-oriented emotional intelligence is related to their organizational citizenship behaviors (OCBs) via the mechanisms of building high-quality exchanges with one's leaders and coworkers. We theorize and find evidence for unique mechanisms involved in mediating the effects of other-oriented emotional intelligence on taking charge and helping.

The present study: (1) compared categories of insomnia severity between cadets of the Swiss Armed Forces (SAF) and previously published norms and (2) investigated the associations between insomnia and psychological well-being related to perceived stress, mental toughness, dark triad traits, and organizational citizenship behavior (OCB).
Methods: A total of 216 cadets of the SAF (mean age: 20.
