The present study aims to explore determinants of entrepreneurial behavior from perspective of social theory. It is based on model notions of (Tyler & Blader, 2003) which have focused on studying role of positively personal and social identity in motivating employees to practicing desired behavior which serves the organization in which they work. Based on these notions and previous literature, study model were built. This model explains the relationship between status judgments (perceived internal respect and perceived external prestige) and entrepreneurial behavior. It includes three main hypotheses. The first and second hypothesis are concerning the relationship between status judgments and entrepreneurial behavior while the third hypothesis pays attention to test role of perceived external prestige as moderator variable for relationship between perceived internal respect and entrepreneurial behavior. Data collected from sample included three colleges of AL-Qadisiyah university which is consisted (152) employees. After extraction findings, number of meaningful conclusions and recommendations were formulated

The present research aims to explore content nature of latent structure of antecedents of overall job performance ratings based upon previous researchers' notions and opinions in explaining comprehensive multi view for job performance dimensions. This view agrees that job performance for employee includes three main dimensions (task performance, citizenship performance and counterproductive work behavior). Conceptual and empirical purport for this research depend on three key directions. The first direction proceeds to knowing relationship nature among three performance dimensions and overall job performance ratings. The second direction aims to explore relative importance for these dimensions on overall job performance ratings. In the third direction, this research attempts to know interrelationships among these three dimensions. By using structural equation modeling, the research's hypotheses were tested and some of meaningful recommendations were formulated.
