This study investigates whether employees' psychological ownership results in stewardship behavior and whether this relationship is affected by an employee's perception of the organization's agency culture. A survey of the financial managers of 129 firms in Germany generally confirms these expectations.

Thereby, our study enriches the literature on the consequences of psychological ownership by providing insights into the boundary conditions of such outcomes at the manager level.
