Abstract

Organizational Citizenship Behavior (OCB) has an essential role in the company, such as motivating workers, increasing innovation, and improving company performance. It is important to know what can increase OCB employees. Positive affect and negative affect are orthogonal, and their interaction produces four types of affective personality. This research will discuss the potential of four types of affective personality as a stable measurement guideline to analyze the OCB level of employees in the company.The OCB Scale instrument is used to measure OCB levels. Participants were 159 employees consisting of 101 men and 58 women in agribusiness-company. PANAS Scale is used to measure the positive affect and negative affect of employees. Data will be processed using one-way ANOVA analysis and Post Hoc analysis. The differences of each character from four types of affective personality can be used to be indicators in measuring the level of OCB in a company. This research identifies that there have difference between four types of affective personality on OCB. The tests conducted in this study are self-report so potentially biased answers. Further research needs to be carried out in companies with different characteristics for example in education or banking to increasingly generalize the results of this research.
