title = "The buffering role of ethical leadership in moral disengagement: Anticompetitive behavioral tendency link",
abstract = "Drawing on social cognitive theory of moral thought and action (Bandura, 1999, Bandura, 1991), we examine the interplay of moral disengagement, ethical leadership and the tendency toward unethical behaviour in marketplace competition context. We propose the positive relationship between employees' moral disengagement and their tendency for anticompetitive behaviour in marketplace competition. Besides, the social learning perspective presents ethical leadership as a strong social factor that influences a variety of (un)ethical behaviour in the workplace. Taking this perspective, the moderating role of ethical leadership was examined by proposing that the positive relationship between moral disengagement and tendency for anticompetitive behaviour is mitigated by ethical leadership. We collected data from field employees working in financial sector located in Pakistan (N = 393) to test the proposed relationships. Structural equation model (SEM) was used to analyse the data. The results supported our proposed model. The findings of the study have theoretical and practical implications and are discussed below.",
