Social-collective investment and affective-collective investment are among the newest constructs in the field of positive psychology that have a high potential for impact on human beings' variables in social environments. This research was administered with the aim of investigating the relationship between social-collective investment and organizational citizenship behaviors due to the mediating role of affective-collective investment. Research method was correlation and research statistical population was the primary school teachers in Borkhar district in Isfahan city, among them 290 persons were selected using simple random sampling. Research instrument consisted of: social-collective investment (Golparvar, 2018), affective-collective investment (Golparvar, 2018) and organizational citizenship behaviors (Vigoda-Gadot et al, 2007). Data were analyzed using Pearson’s correlation coefficient and structural equation modeling (SEM). Results revealed that there is a positive significant relationship between social-collective investment with affective-collective investment and organizational citizenship behaviors (p<0.01), and between affective-collective investment with organizational citizenship behaviors (p<0.01). Results of structural equation modeling and mediation analysis indicated that affective-collective investment is a complete mediator on the relationship between social-collective investment and organizational citizenship behaviors.
