Abstract
Previous studies explain situational antecedents of organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) using social exchange theory. However, the effects of factors such as perceptions of job characteristics on OCB seem to require a different explanatory mechanism. This article proposes that these effects can be explained through a new exchange relationship called work exchange. A theory for the situational antecedents of OCB that includes economic, work, and social exchange relationships is developed. The theory is tested using structural equations.
