Past research suggests that ethical culture and moral identity impact ethical behavior in organizations. However, research has yet to consider if collective moral identity interacts with ethical culture to predict ethical behavior and how ethical culture strength has a role in this relationship. The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship of ethical culture, ethical culture strength, and collective moral identity with unit-level observed unethical behavior and unethical pro-organizational behavior while examining their moderating effects. We test our model with 1942 employees from 96 units of ten organizations and within-unit agreement was estimated for all variables. Our findings point out that ethical culture, and ethical culture strength have a strong association on unethical behavior, but that collective moral identity has no association. We discuss implications regarding the influence of collective moral identity on societies where the perception of corruption is high.

- Objective: to analyze the propensity for corrupt decision-making by pre-candidates for mayor and councilor, analyzing the 2020 Brazilian municipal elections. - Theoretical framework: the study is theoretically based on the behavioral aspect of corruption, as deviant behavior, as well as intrinsic and extrinsic motivations to corruption, which are subdivided into: propensity to unethical decision-making, individual self-control, moral identity, guilt, and disengagement moral. - Methodology: A quantitative, exploratory, and descriptive study was conducted. In the operationalization, a cross-sectional survey was used, with the data collected through a structured questionnaire applied to a valid sample of 115 pre-candidates for the 2020 municipal elections. The data analysis used univariate and bivariate statistical techniques. - Results: (1) a sample have low propensity for unethical decision-making, high individual self-control, high moral identity, low guilt, and low propensity for moral disengagement; (2) there is a significant and positive association between the variables of individual self-control with guilt, moral disengagement; and moral identity is shown to be positively associated with moral disengagement, and moral disengagement positively with the variable of having a previous elective position or not. - Originality: The main contribution of the research is the analysis of the theme on municipal legislators and executors, in the version of pre-candidates. - Theoretical and practical contributions: (1) low representation of women even as pre-candidates; (2) the sample considers the ‘other’ pre-willing politicians to make unethical decision-making, but not themselves; (3) sample with a high capacity for self-control, especially the part of the sample that did not have a previous elective position; (4) women have a higher degree of guilt than men, that is, they are less disposed to unethical decisions or corruption; (5) it can be said that the sample has a low propensity to deviant behaviors, that is, corruption.
