A survey was conducted to collect data from teachers in the public elementary schools in Taichung, Chunghua, and Nantou regions. A total of 289 usable samples was obtained in this study. The results show that the five dimensions of teachers’ psychological empowerment (decision-making, self-efficacy, status, autonomy, and professional consultation) have a positive effect on organizational citizenship behavior. In addition, locus of control also has a moderating effect on the relationship between teachers’ psychological empowerment and organizational citizenship behavior. The results of this research helps build up and extend current literatures in the areas of psychological empowerment and organizational citizenship behavior. Finally, the managerial implications, limitations of this research, and the recommendations for future research are discussed in detail.
