      This study investigated the association between psychological empowerment and organisational citizenship behaviour, on the one hand, and intention to stay among employees in the banking sector in Lesotho. A few studies have investigated the relationship between intention to stay and the two independent variables of psychological empowerment and organisational citizenship behaviour individually. However, no study has investigated the relationship between intention to stay and psychological empowerment and organisational citizenship behaviour (combined) as predictors of intention to stay in the banking sector in Lesotho. Investigating psychological empowerment and organisational citizenship behaviour as predictors of employee intention to stay in the Lesotho banking sector has been considered vital for this study. Variables were chosen due to deficiencies in previous research related to the constructs of psychological empowerment; organisational citizenship behaviour and intention to stay explain the necessity for further research, in particular to the banking sector in Lesotho. Utilizing a positivist perspective, the current research used a closed questionnaire to 321 employees from three commercial banks in Lesotho. The response rate was 98 percent (309 responses). To analyse data, the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) was used. In particular, this research used exploratory factor analysis, Pearson correlation, and analysis of variance (ANOVA), analysis of moment structures (AMOS) as well as structural equation modelling to address the hypothesised relationships. Overall, the results of this study found that there is no association between psychological empowerment and employee intention to stay in the organisation. Demographic variables were used as control variables in the study and it was found, inter alia, that age positively influences the level of psychological empowerment as a predictor of intention to stay. ; Thesis (PhD) -- Faculty of Management and Commerce, 2020
