This study sought to analyze the Brazilian scientific production in 2000-2010 on employee's linkages with the organization, covering four main topics: organizational commitment, psychological contracts, organizational citizenship and perceptions of support, justice and equity. The importance of these issues to micro-organizational research and the intense research on the topic are the reasons for making this choice. Sixty-three articles were identified. The analyses followed three emphases: methodological features; content of articles, their contributions and limitations; and partnership networks between authors and institutions. The results show high levels of conceptual haziness and overlapping of instruments, and little interaction between research groups. Based on the findings, a research agenda is proposed.
