This study examines the extent to which introversion moderates the relationship between perceived supervisor support and organizational citizenship behavior (OCB). Based on a sample of 586 employees working in Pakistan’s education sector, we find that introverts have a positive moderating effect on the indirect relationship between perceived supervisor support, work engagement and OCB. This suggests that supervisor support fosters work engagement and, in turn, OCB.

This study investigates the relationship between extrinsic, intrinsic and social rewards, and the organizational commitment of 6,911 employees who work for 13 Japanese companies in Thailand. Hierarchical regression analysis revealed that variables included to measure extrinsic, social and intrinsic rewards were strongly related to organizational commitment. These findings suggest that the antecedents of organizational commitment in the Japanese companies in Thailand are different from those in the other kind of corporations in the West. The comparison between University graduates and others showed that benefit satisfaction and fatigue had stronger and supervisor support and role clarity had weaker influence on organizational commitment in university graduates than in others. Discussions and implications concerning human resource management of Japanese companies in Thailand are offered.
