Specifically, the effect of three theory of planned behavior (TPB) construct on academic dishonesty is investigated, with the role of justification as a mediating variable. The role of TPB construct as mediating variable between five personality traits and academic dishonesty is also determined using 314 accounting students. The result indicated that there is a positive relationship between attitude and academic dishonesty. Additionally, the role of justification as a mediating variable proved partially significant in the relationship.
