JULIAN, MARTÍN y BQNAYIA, TOMAS. Psychosocial Approaches to Corruption: A Theoretical Review. Rev. colomb. psicol. [online]. 2017, vol.26, n.2, pp.231-243. ISSN 0121-5469. https://doi.org/10.15446/rcp.v26n2.59353.
Corruption is widespread in current societies; despite its social relevance, it has been studied mostly from economic per spectives. The article reviews and critically analyzes corruption from different social psychology approaches, both in the Anglophone and Latin American settings. Regarding the former, the article highlights the influence of peer behaviors and social norms, risk perceptions, the role of emotions, behavioral ethics and the relationship of corruption to power Regarding the latter, the Latin American models focus on the influence of supra-individual structures such as ethical values and institutions on the individual's conduct. It is proposed that research on this topic look systematically at the main psychosocial factors to formulate specific theoretical frameworks that explain this social phenomenon.
