Abstract

Referring to the theory of planned behavior, behavior arises because of behavioral intention where personality is one of the behavioral intention's factors. This study aimed to examine the correlation between dark triad personality and corrupt intention among state civil apparatus. The data were collected using accidental sampling with cross-sectional survey quantitative research design on 75 government employees from four different sub-districts. The result showed that there was a significant positive correlation between dark triad personality and corrupt intention (r=0.415; p=0.001). Additional analysis showed that corruption is a crime caused by weak regulation system and supervision (PBC r=0.665). Last but not least, the narcissism aspect of dark triad personality have higher correlation was the most influenced corrupt intention (r=0.413). The theoretical implication found in this study was, dark triad personality is not direct predictor of corrupt intention, but an indirect predictor through attitude towards behavior, subjective norms, and perceived behavior control.
