| dc.description.abstract | Purpose - The aim of this research is twofold. First this research proposed a new scale called Future Time Perspective in the Organization (FTPO). It is examined whether this scale is a statistical useful new construct in measuring the perceive temporality of employees in a particular organization. Second, the aim is to examine the impact of type of contract (permanent versus temporary) on Organizational Citizenship Behavior, with the mediating effect of Organizational Identity in this direct relationship, and the moderating effect of Future Time Perspective in the Organization on these relationships. Design - Two studies are used to gather empirical evidence if FTPO shows comparable results on the added value of this construct. This to increase the internal validity of the construct. Next to that, study 2 is used to test the four hypothesized relationships. Both studies had a cross-sectional design, used a self-reported questionnaire, and used a convenience sampling (snowball sampling) method. In total, study 1 had 273 respondents and study 2 190 respondents. Findings - Both studies indicate added value of the new construct FTPO. It has exploratory power above other time-related variables. In study 2, the hypotheses are tested. Neither one of them showed significant results. There is no influence of type of contract on one of the relationships. Conclusion - This research adds a new construct to the literature about perceived temporality. Furthermore, it indicates that type of contract does not have an influence on the hypothesized relationships. The research only confirms positive relations between Organizational Identity and Organizational Citizenship Behavior, Future Time Perspective in the Organization and Organizational Identity, and Future Time Perspective in the Organization and Organizational Citizenship Behavior. Finally, there are suggestions for future research (e.g. longitudinal research design, larger sample size, involving other influences of factors). | en_US |
