This study examined the effect of person-organization fit on organizational citizenship behavior in sports organizations. The data of the study was obtained from 192 employees working in various units of the Youth and Sports Provincial Directorate of Izmır, Turkey. Person-organization fit, and organizational citizenship behavior scales were used as data collection tools. The person-organization fit scale developed by Netemeyer, Boles, McKee, and McMurrian (1997) is one-dimensional and consists of 4 items. The organizational citizenship scale, developed by Podsakoff and MacKenzie (1997) and adapted into Turkish by Elçi (2005), consists of five dimensions and 20 items. The study’s findings showed that person-organization fit significantly and positively affected organizational citizenship behavior (β=0.258; p<0.01). Additionally, the findings showed that person-organization fit significantly and positively affected the dimensions of altruism, sportsmanship, conscientiousness, and civic virtue. On the other hand, it was observed that person-organization fit did not have any effect on the courtesy dimension of organizational citizenship behavior.
