Abstract

The current research sought to test spiritual capital dimensions (religiosity, ethics, creative and health) and its role in stimulating the behavior of organizational citizenship through the moderate role of the psychological ownership for a group of 159 faculty members at Al-Muthanna University faculties in various disciplines and various scientific titles. The questionnaire was the main tool for data collection, and using a set of statistical analyzes of confirmatory factor analysis and regression analyzes using the AMOS v.23 & SPSS v.23 program tested the main research hypotheses. The current research presented a set of conclusions, whether there is a relationship between spiritual capital and organizational citizenship behavior. In other words, spiritual individuals are more likely to exhibit organizational citizenship behavior that promotes the well-being of the organization. This may include training by teachers who benefit their faculties even though they are not related to their jobs and do not have any material impact. This makes spiritual capital an important predictor of the behavior of organizational citizenship. The most important recommendations were to invite Iraqi universities and institutions of higher education, including Al-Muthanna university and its colleges, to examine the need to adopt activities and practices that enhance spiritual and psychological aspects that can contribute to the effectiveness of educational institutions.
