Research Abstract

Whistlebrower Protection Act was investigated by game theory and economic experiment. A whistlebrower has motive to report an unjust conduct in a corporation for social justice and consumer's benefit. On the other hand, he will be doubted his royalty for the corporation and is given a label as a traitor. So we modeled such a whistlebrower's behavior by guilt aversion theory. We then extended the theory toward a theory of collective guilt responsibility.
