Discretionary collaborative behavior (DCB) is defined as a sense of attachment, whereby an individual exhibits citizenship behavior in exchange of positive experience without expecting reciprocity. It is generally accepted that a graduate who is satisfied with the quality of his or her educational experience is likely to reciprocate by performing certain behaviors that benefit the alma mater. Whether or not this reciprocating behavior is consistent across all individuals, however, is much less clear. This objective of the study is to measure the intended DCB's of students of higher educational institutes in Kerala, India. This study was conducted among 192 students of regular and evening/part time B.Tech programmes offered by highly ranked public and private institutes. Through factor analysis, five factors of DCB got derived which include identification, support, communication, financial contributions and liaison and subsequently measures the psychometric properties of the scale.
