Abstract: | This study explores equity sensitivity as an explanation for the differences in individuals’ organizational citizenship behaviors
in response to their perceptions of organizational justice. The concept of equity sensitivity recognizes three categories
of individuals: benevolents, entitleds, and sensitives. As predicted, benevolents perform more OCBs than entitleds regardless
of the level of perceived justice. However, sensitives did not react as hypothesized and instead reacted similarly to benevolents.
Entitleds were the most sensitive to perceived justice, responding consistently with Adam’s (1963, 1965) equity theory. |
