Abstract
The aim of research is to reveal the effect of organizational cynicism on organizational citizenship behavior. Within the scope of this aim, a questionnaire was applied to 291 research assistants working at public and foundation universities. The obtained data were analyzed by confirmatory factor analysis and regression analysis through structural equation modeling. It has been found that the behavioral dimension of organizational cynicism significantly and negatively influences altruism, sportsmanship and civic virtue dimensions of organizational citizenship behavior. However, affective cynicism has a significant and negative effect on the altruism and civic virtue dimensions of organizational citizenship behavior. The cognitive dimension, on the other hand, does not significantly affect organizational citizenship behavior. The research aims to contribute the literature in terms of; showing effects of organizational cynicism on organizational citizenship behavior, and revealing the perceptions of research assistants toward organizational cynicism and organizational citizenship behavior.
