Therefore, they tried combinational studies which would provide them with the extract of the current studies related to a special subject in a more systematic way. Due to the importance of the relationship between transformational leadership and organizational citizenship behavior, this study has reviewed 8 articles aiming for merging quantitative results of studies regarding the relationship between transformational leadership and organizational citizenship behavior in Iran, using meta-analysis method and comprehensive meta-analysis software (CMA2).The results of meta-analysis indicates that there is a higher than average relevance between transformational leadership and organizational citizenship behavior (with average effect-size of 0.6). Among the transformational leadership attributes, idealized behaviors with the effect-size of 0.62 has the greatest effect-size regarding organizational citizenship behavior and individual considerations with the effect-size of 0.54 has the least effect-size regarding organizational citizenship behavior.
