다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This study investigated the causal relationships among employees` participation in sports activities, their flow experience, followership, and organizational citizenship behavior. In order to empirically test the relationships, the data were collected from the sample of 720 employees who works in over medium size business organizations located in six metropolitan areas of Korea. The sample was selected using the methods of proportionate probability sampling and random sampling. Among the data from 720 employees, 584 employees data were used for analysis after filtering the unreliable data.
The collected data were analyzed to test the causal relationships using descriptive statistics, one-way ANOVA, ANCOVA, multi-classification analysis, and covariance structure analysis of SPSS/PC+ 8.0 version and Amos 3.6 version statistical package.
From the above analysis, the following conclusions were obtained:
Firstly, the employees who participate in sports activities frequently and consistently tend to have strong flow experiences, and to exert active role behavior as followers, and to perform considerate behaviors to other members.
Secondly, the employees who have strong cognitive flow experience in sports activities tend to exert independent and active role behavior as followers, and perform positive organizational citizenship behavior. And the employees who have strong behavioral flow experience in sport activities tend to exert active role behaviors as followers, and perform participatory organizational citizenship behavior.
Thirdly, the employees who exert independent role behavior as followers tend to perform participatory acid problem-preventive organizational citizenship behaviors. And the employees who exert active role behavior as followers tend to perform positive organizational citizenship behavior.
Fourth, there exist causal relationships among employees` participation in sports activities, their flow experience, followership, and organizational citizenship behavior. This causal model fits well with empirical data.
