Abstract
|
|
|
|
Guided by the extended model of the theory of reasoned action, this study hypothesized reporting attitudes, subject norms, past reporting experiences of elder abuse, and prior knowledge would affect intention to whistleblow elder abuse by workers of day and night care facilities. As a result, attitude toward reporting elder abuse, subjective norms, past experiences, and prior knowledge were found to affect all dependent variables. The reporting attitudes of elder abuse, the subjective norms and prior knowledge were the main factors that increase the possibility of internal and external whistleblowing. In conclusion, this study provided implications to raise effectiveness of mandatory reporting system of elder abuse and highlighted significant change of workplace culture which might support internal and external whistleblowing of elder abuse.
