碩士 === 義守大學 === 工業管理學系 === 102 === Business in Taiwan has gradually emphasized the important of personality traits while the evaluation of professional competence is decreasing in recruitment and selection of new employees. Based on the concept of core self-evaluation proposed by Judge et al. (1997), this study built a structural equation modeling to examine if the relationship between core self-evaluation and organizational citizenship behaviors is mediated by job satisfaction. A well-defined questionnaire was designed to execute a research survey. At least 214 valid questionnaires were sorted out from a total of 250 collected ones, at a rate of 85.6%. Such statistical software as SPSS and AMOS were performed to investigate the structural equation modeling proposed by this study. The results of the research showed that core self-evaluation has significant positive impact on job satisfaction and organizational citizenship behaviors; and job satisfaction also has greatly positive impact on organizational citizenship behaviors; furthermore, the relationship between core self-evaluation and organizational citizenship behaviors is significantly mediated by job satisfaction. Finally, relevant research conclusion and suggestions were provided for the future researchers, and research limitations were also illustrated as references.
