Abstract
This study draws on the tenets of self-efficacy theory to examine the relationships between training effectiveness, attitude towards organisational change and organisational citizenship behaviour. Data were collected from 486 registered nurses in public hospitals across three states in Australia. Results show that there are significant relationships between training effectiveness and organisational citizenship behaviour, training effectiveness and three different attitudes towards change namely acceptance, cynicism and fear. Further the attitudes towards change are significantly related to organisational citizenship behaviour. In addition, we find acceptance and cynicism mediate the relationship between training effectiveness and organisational citizenship behaviour. Theoretical contributions and managerial implications are discussed along with limitations and directions for future research.
