Abstract:
Proprietà psicometriche della scala di orientamento positivo nel contesto lavorativo - The aim of the study is to investigate the psychometric properties of the positive orientation scale, in an organizational setting.

Criterion validity was further corroborated with regard to self-report measure (such as perceived work self-efficacy and job satisfaction) as well as with regard to other evaluated (colleagues) organizational citizenship behaviors.

Keywords: positive orientation, organizational citizenship behaviours, optimal functioning, well-being.

Parole chiave: orientamento positivo, comportamenti di cittadinanza organizzativa, funzionamento ottimale, benessere.
