“…31 More than that, it also breeds distrust in the entire healthcare profession which can impact their health seeking behavior. This is in line with the studies of Lavado et al, 33 Hechanova et al, 34 Quimbo et al, 35 and Fitzpatrick et al 36 wherein they noted that negative perceptions on care delivery, trust issues, and lack of responsiveness among healthcare providers were more significant deterrents than concrete barriers (e.g. geographical barriers).…”

Background: Nurses exposed to community health nursing commonly encounter situations that can be morally distressing. However, most research on moral distress has focused on acute care settings and very little research has explored moral distress in a community health nursing setting especially among nursing students. Aim: To explore the moral distress experiences encountered by undergraduate baccalaureate nursing students in community health nursing. Research design: A descriptive qualitative design was employed to explore the community health nursing experiences of the nursing students that led them to have moral distress. Participants and research context: The study included 14 senior nursing students who had their course in Community Health Nursing in their sophomore year and stayed in the partner communities in their junior year for 6 and 3 weeks during their senior year. Ethical considerations: Institutional review board approval was sought prior to the conduct of the study. Self-determination was assured and anonymity and confidentiality were guaranteed to all participants. Findings: Nursing students are vulnerable and likely to experience moral distress when faced with ethical dilemmas. They encounter numerous situations which make them question their own values and ideals and those of that around them. Findings of the study surfaced three central themes which included moral distress emanating from the unprofessional behavior of some healthcare workers, the resulting sense of powerlessness, and the differing values and mindsets of the people they serve in the community. Conclusion: This study provides educators a glimpse of the morally distressing situations that often occurs in the community setting. It suggests the importance of raising awareness and understanding of these situations to assist nursing students to prepare themselves to the “real world,” where the ideals they have will be constantly challenged and tested.

“…Moreover, the mediating variable of ethical corporate culture (as a macro-level variable) was designed to predict the lower-level perception variable. Although this mismatched analytic framework is not confined to this study (Hechanova et al, 2014;Warren et al, 2014), it is still possible for our findings to be faced with a type I error. However, to use both bank type and organization size as controls in our analytical models would certainly ease the concerns pertaining to the mismatch issue to some extent.…”

There has been no clear evidence about whether organizational investment works for countering occupational fraud, and where to focus the investment if it works. In this regard, the present study explored the mediating roles of ethical culture and monitoring control in the 'organizational investment-occupational fraud' linkage. Using a sample of 392 Korean banking employees, a series of structural equation models were estimated. The results showed that the perception of increased investment in anti-occupational fraud enhanced two mediating variables, ethical culture and monitoring control. However, only the perception of an improved ethical culture was negatively related to the perceived frequency of occupational fraud with statistical significance. These findings imply that investing in ethical culture is more effective in preventing occupational fraud.

“…Besides, the perpetrator gains post-violation justifications in the form of compensatory behaviour with the aim that his behaviour can be forgiven. (2) Violation of gratification with group support is corrupt behaviour and potential to become a culture in an organization (Al-Jundi, Shuhaiber, & Al-Emara, 2019;Hechanova et al, 2014). Groups create norms that support corrupt behaviour (Vadera & Pratt, 2013;World Development Report, 2015), which is known as Unethical Pro-organizational Behaviour (UPB).…”

The Meaning of Gratification, Moral Credential, and the Value of Selflessness Action in Violations Committed by a Respected Person

This study aims to prove how kindness conducted by the group, the definition of violations and the value of doing good, can affect moral credential in the form of the leniency of punishment for corruptors. Sample 319 polices and doctors divided into two segments. This study uses a population-based survey experiment method. Participants divided into moral credential with the narrative noble duty, and non-moral credential with neutral narratives. Researchers require each participant to provide criminal punishment and social reactions to the vignette of violation cases due to receiving gratification without (study 1) and with group support (study 2). Statistical correlation test with Kendall's Tau-b finds that defining the behaviour of gratification influences punishment, the correlation shown in invisible victim is rτ = .455, p = .000, and visible victim, rτ = .191, p = .003, but there is no significant relationship between the values of selflessness action and defining the behaviour of gratification as a violation (rτ = -.006, p = .922). Through the Mann Whitney U test it was found that the moral credential and non-moral credential conditions do not affect the provision of informal social reactions to violators, both the perpetrators of gratification with invisible victims (Mdn = 2), U = 2757, p = .523, and visible victims (Mdn = 2), U = 2778.5, p = .575, and also in a situation of gratification with group support, the perpetrators of gratification with invisible victims (Mdn = 2), U = 3419, p = .937, and visible victims (Mdn = 2), U = 2978,5, p = .119.
