چکیده

A model hypothesizing relationships between work environment variables (perceived coworker support, task interdependence) and work outcome variables (job satisfaction, job performance, organizational citizenship behavior) through a mediator variable (felt responsibility) was tested. Data from 141 law enforcement officers supported the hypothesized relationships. Perceived coworker support and task interdependence positively influenced felt responsibility, which positively influenced the outcome variables. Importantly, this study extends previous research on the mediating effects of felt responsibility by recognizing that the perceived support of one’s coworkers is necessary for the feeling of felt responsibility, even in a highly task interdependent work environment.
