Casual Model Study among Variables Related to the Social Worker’s Job Attitude and Behavior

Abstract

As an advanced factor of OCB, causative variables (heterogenous, independent), such as the fairness of personnel management, the behavioral characteristics of an executive and the ethical management, are considered important in the organization management. With these having the executive trust and the organizational cynicism as a medium, the study focused on defining a relation of them, examining how they would work with the job attitude and the behaviors (organizational citizenship behavior, the job satisfaction and affective involvement), which are the causative variables (endogenous, subordinate). Through a comprehensive model, this study confirmed channels of variables which would affect the job attitude and behavior, which has led the study to suggest an empirical frame to clearly define causative variables, parameters and consequential variables. In other words, by having included general social welfare organization management-related variables, such as behavioral characteristics of an executive and ethical management, which have never been grafted onto the field of social welfare administration, the study came to have an academically significant meaning as a paper that has distributed itself to the establishment of general follow-up researches on social welfare organizations and social workers.
