| Abstract: | This paper discusses what aspects of the person, the context, and the transgression relate to whistleblowing intentions and to actual whistleblowing on corporate wrongdoing. Meta-analytic examination of 193 correlations obtained from 26 samples reveals differences in the correlates of whistleblowing intentions and actions. It is shown that stronger relationships exist between personal, contextual, and wrongdoing characteristics and whistleblowing intent than with actual whistleblowing. Retaliation might best be predicted using contextual variables. |
