This article presents a Spanish adaption of the citizenship performance questionnaire of Coleman and Borman (2000) an analysis of its empirical structure. Once the original questionnaire was translated and adapted to a Spanish public administration context, it was administered to a sample of 135 public employees representing the complete staff ofa´ Autonomic Government unit. Results show a high internal consistency of the questionnaire, although it seems to measure three related dimensions. Two of these dimensions are highly stable and coincide with those proposed by LePine, Erez, and Johnson (2002), Generalized Compliance and Altruism, while the third dimension is difficult to interpret. A second order factor analysis supports the existence of a unique underlying dimension of citizenship performance. These results have theoretical as well as practical implications that may help the interpretation and diagnosis in this domain.

Keywords : citizenship performance; contextual performance; organizational citizenship behaviour; citizenship performance scale.
