Abstract

The present study examines the impact of teachers' participation in decision making (i.e., technical domain and managerial domain) on their organizational citizenship behavior and the mediating effect of the empowerment over the relationship between participatory decision making and organizational citizenship behavior. This quantitative study follows a deductive research approach and survey strategy. The purpose of the study is explanatory and it is crosssectional. Data collection was done using a standard self-administered questionnaire from 281 teachers in 12 selected public schools in one educational division in Sri Lanka. Regression analysis was used to test the hypothesized model of the study. Study findings revealed that technical, managerial, and overall participatory decision making impact positively on organizational citizenship behavior of teachers. Empowerment mediated the relationship between participatory decision making and organizational citizenship behavior. This study has numerous implications for scholars, teachers and school administrators.
