Resumo(s)
Moral and financial scandals emerging in recent years around the world have
created the momentum for reconsidering the role of virtuousness in
organizational settings. This empirical study seeks to contribute toward
maintaining this momentum. We answer to researchers’ suggestions that the
exploratory study carried out by Cameron et al. (Am Behav Sci 47(6):766–790,
2004), which related organizational virtuousness (OV) and performance, must be
pursued employing their measure of OV in other contexts and in relation to other
outcomes (Wright and Goodstein, J Manage 33(6):928–958, 2007). Two hundred and
sixteen employees reported their perceptions of OV and their affective well-
being (AWB) at work (one of the main indicators of employees’ happiness), their
supervisors reporting their organizational citizenship behaviors (OCB). The main
finding is that the perceptions of OV predict some OCB both directly and through
the mediating role of AWB. The evidence suggests that OV is worthy of a higher
status in the business and organizational psychology lite
