Abstract

Under the goal of ‘competent and dignified police, a safe community trusted by the public,’ the police is implementing four major policies: securing reliable public security, establishing a solid safety system, pioneering future security, and establishing strict law and order. The success or failure of these police organizations can vary depending on the efforts of all police officers. The organizational citizenship behavior of police officers is explained as a factor that can improve the performance of organizational members, achieve organizational goals, and influence organizational innovation and development. Accordingly, this study sought to verify the core ideology and organizational citizenship behavior pursued by the police. In addition, this study sought to verify the moderating effect that police officials' public service motivation, that is, the motivation to perform police public security services for the country and the people, has on the core ideology and organizational citizenship behavior of police officials. As a result of the study, first, the core ideology of police officers was found to have a positive influence(+) on organizational citizenship behavior. Second, police officers' public service motivation was found to have a positive influence(+) on organizational citizenship behavior. Finally, the interaction term between police officers' core ideology and public service motivation was found to have a statistically significant effect on organizational citizenship behavior. In other words, the core ideology and public service motivation of police officers were found to further improve organizational citizenship behavior. Based on these research results, we attempted to discuss implications for police officers' organizational citizenship behavior that can aim for a safe society.
