Abstract

This study analysed articles examining the connection between perceived organisational justice (OJ) and organisational citizenship behaviour (OCB) in the public institutions of Türkiye. Firstly, the notions of OJ, OCB and their sub-dimensions were explained. Then, empirical research conducted in Turkish public institutions on these subjects was selected within the framework of the determined criteria and analysed using the descriptive analysis technique. Subsequently, the findings from the selected articles were discussed. This study revealed positive and significant relationships among perceived OJ and OCB in the public institutions of Türkiye. On the relationship between OJ and OCB, interactional justice, one of the sub-dimensions of OJ, has been identified as having a stronger correlation with OCB than other OJ sub-dimensions. On connection among OJ and OCB, it's been detected that communication satisfaction, job satisfaction collectivism, organisational identity, organisational culture, and psychological capital variables had intermediary roles. It's been detected that OJ has a mediating role among OCB and locus of control, ethical leadership, and whistleblowing. Between the demographic characteristics examined for the correlation among OJ and OCB, it's been discovered that the significant distribution by gender was more evident than other demographic characteristics.
