Abstract :
The present study seeks to design a model explaining the role of perceived HR practices in public service motivation with a psychological approach. In other words, while determining the human resource measures that affect public service motivation, the impact of human resource actions on public service motivation is examined from a psychological perspective. The study is descriptive, purposeful, and descriptive in terms of data collection. This study was conducted on a sample of 200 employees of Allameh Tabatabai University using a questionnaire based on 114 questions. The internal consistency of the questionnaire tool was assessed using the Cronbach's alpha coefficient, which was confirmed. The Cronbach's alpha coefficient was 0.852 perceived HR, 0.835 psychological ownership, 0.604 psychological climate, 0.740 public service motivation, and psychological empowerment 0.581. Also, considering the GOF, the overall fit of the model is estimated to be strong at 466.0. The results show that perceived HR practices have a nonlinear effect on public service motivation. Psychological ownership and psychological empowerment also influence public service motivation. However, the mediating role of the psychological climate in the relationship between perceived HR practices and public service motivation and psychological ownership in the relationship between psychological climate and public service motivation was not confirmed
