The personal outcomes of Organizational Citizenship Behavior (OCB) have recently gained popularity in research, but it is rarely studied in part-time or temporary employees and, in particular, in employed university students. The aim of the current study was to address this gap in the literature by investigating the outcomes of OCB, including job stress, work-university conflict, work-leisure conflict, intent to quit, well-being, and job satisfaction, in university students who undertake contingent and part-time work. Using a correlational research design, data collection was conducted through an online survey administered to 122 employed university students. The correlation analysis revealed that OCB correlated positively with work-university conflict and work-leisure conflict, which is aligned with earlier work. However, in contrast to earlier findings, OCB did not correlate with well-being, stress, job satisfaction or intent to quit. Regression analyses revealed that OCB positively predicted job satisfaction, when entered together with work-university conflict, job stress, and intent to quit. OCB also predicted job stress when entered with job satisfaction. However, OCB did not predict well-being. In turn, work-university conflict negatively predicted well-being. The current findings differ from the wider literature on full-time employees, which suggests a need for further research to examine why these differences exist and what are their practical implications.
