Abstract

Several factors like cognitive attitude, norms, and behavioral control still influence corruption. Ajzen theory states that social and psychological aspects can be antecedents. This research looks into the variables of the theory of planned behavior (TPB) to anticipate the effect of perceived corruption (PC). Considering the primary entrepreneurial deterrent, the dataset is based on 400 Polish graduate students' entrepreneurial intents and behavior who graduated from higher education programs at eight universities in Poland. These three variables were examined for their influence on corrupt perception and behavior. This study explores the attitude and behavior of corruption/fraud by using Ajzen's TPB. This is accomplished by paying closer attention to the impact of cognition attitude (CA), subjective norm (SN), and perceived behavioral control (PBC), which influence the intention to commit corruption. This provides a solid theoretical basis for this research.
