✦ Synopsis
This study examined organizational citizenship of residents in a housing cooperative setting where roles were not in¯uenced by traditional employee±employer work relationships. Results demonstrate that the individual dierences of collectivism and propensity to trust predicted organizational citizenship (assessed six months later). In addition, organizational-based self-esteem fully mediated the eects of collectivism and propensity to trust on organizational citizenship, and tenure moderated the trustÐselfesteem relationship. We discuss the implications of these results given the changing nature of work and the increasing importance of non-work organizations.
