Abstract Details

2016, Master of Arts (MA), Bowling Green State University, Psychology/Industrial-Organizational.
Previous research has demonstrated relationships between work stressors and the outcome variables of counterproductive work behavior (CWB) and organizational citizenship behavior (OCB). The present study examines physical activity as a potential moderator of these relationships. This study also examines mood and energy as underlying mechanisms of the proposed moderation effect. To test this relationship, 294 firefighters completed a survey measuring work stressors, physical activity, CWB, and OCB. 54 firefighters participated in a six-week follow-up survey. Main effect and moderation analyses were performed using hierarchical linear regression. Results revealed that various work stressors, including interpersonal conflict, organizational constraints and procedural injustice, were positively related to CWB. Interpersonal conflict, workload, organizational constraints, and procedural injustice were positively related to OCB. Physical activity moderated the relationship between interpersonal conflict and CWB and the relationship between workload and OCB. Energy and mood did not account for these relationships. Implications and future research directions are discussed.
