“The Impact of Attitudes, Subjective Norms and Perceived Behavioral Control on Whistleblowing Intention in Pakistani Banks: The Indirect Effects of Organisational Cynicism and Religiosity”

This research study aims to assess the impacts of attitudes, subjective norms and perceived behavioural control on whistleblowing intention in bankers living in Pakistan. The purpose of the study was also to assess whether organisational cynicism plays a crucial role as a mediator and whether religiosity plays a role as a moderator in this relationship. The research used cluster sampling, a form of probability random sampling, to target the population of Pakistani bankers based on their subclasses of urban cities. The proposed sample collection was 200; 166 questionnaires are included in the study, a response rate of 83%. The study finds that attitudes and subjective norms have a direct relationship with whistleblowing intention, while perceived behavioural control does not have an effect on whistleblowing intention. Moreover, the study finds that the relationship between attitudes and whistleblowing is partially mediated by organisational cynicism. Lastly, the research finds that all the independent variables were moderated by religiosity.
