Abstract
The contemporary work environments increasingly promote polychronic behavior, which requires employees to deal with two or more activities in the same time block. Integrating research on polychronicity and organizational citizenship behaviors (OCBs), it was hypothesized that polychronicity would be significantly and positively related to OCBs in a polychronic work context and perceived time pressure would moderate this relationship. Results from an academic context indicated that polychronicity was related to OCBs. However, perceived time pressure was not found to moderate this relationship. The findings indicate that polychronicity as a temporal personality is an important construct that deserves attention in organizational settings. With this study, the nomological net surrounding the construct of polychronicity was further developed by examining previously unresearched relationships.
