ABSTRACT: The present study developed a mediation model to examine how family supportive
supervisor behaviors (FSSB) affect employees’ family-like employee-organization
relationship (FEOR) which in turn affects employees’ organizational citizen
behavior (OCB). A random sample of 211 Chinese fulltime employees completed
online surveys, and to test the former assumptions M-plus software was
used to conduct linear regression analysis. Results shows: 1) family supportive
supervisor behaviors are positively related to family-like employee-organization
relationship, 2) family-like employee-organization relationship is positively
related to employees’ organizational citizen behavior, and 3) the relationship
between FSSB and OCB was partly mediated by FEOR.
