“…Such whistleblowers have been shown to be an effective way to reduce damages and discipline organizations (Bowen et al., 2010; Call et al., 2018; Wilde, 2017). But although countries continue to pass laws that protect or reward whistleblowing (Oelrich, 2019) and organizations implement whistleblowing systems (Association of Certified Fraud Examiners, 2018), whistleblowers still face severe negative consequences, such as loss of employment, retaliation by colleagues, and superiors, or even prosecution (e.g., Alford, 2001; Kenny et al., 2019; Park et al., 2020). Due to its importance, research on whistleblowing spans across several professions and disciplines, including auditing (e.g., Curtis & Taylor, 2009; Latan et al., 2018), accounting and management (e.g., Andon et al., 2018; Cassematis & Wortley, 2013; Keenan, 1995), nursing and medicine (e.g., Moore & McAuliffe, 2012; Ohnishi et al., 2008), sports (e.g., Erickson et al., 2018), military (e.g., Rehg et al., 2008), and police (e.g., Park & Blenkinsopp, 2009).…”
