Abstract

This study aims to examine the role of social norms in shaping whistleblowing intentions in the use of digital fraud reporting platforms. With the increasing adoption of digital technology in fraud reporting systems, understanding the behavioral factors that influence individuals' willingness to report violations is becoming increasingly important. Social norms, both descriptive and injunctive, play a significant role in influencing individuals' perceptions of environmental support, social risk, and the legitimacy of whistleblowing. This study uses a literature review method by examining scientific articles, academic books, and relevant publications that discuss the relationship between social norms, whistleblowing intentions, and the characteristics of digital fraud reporting platforms. The results of the study indicate that social norms that support organizational transparency, ethics, and accountability tend to increase individuals' intentions to whistleblow through digital platforms. In addition, anonymity, data security, and trust in digital systems interact with social norms to strengthen or weaken reporting intentions. This study confirms that the successful implementation of digital whistleblowing platforms depends not only on technological aspects but also on the social and cultural context of the organization that shapes individual behavior. This research is expected to provide theoretical contributions to the development of behavior-based whistleblowing literature, as well as practical implications for organizations and policymakers in designing effective digital reporting systems oriented toward strengthening positive social norms.

Abstract

This study aims to comprehensively examine individuals' neurobehavioral responses to financial restatement disclosures through a literature review approach, focusing on the use of functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS) technology in accounting and behavioral finance research. Financial restatements are often perceived as negative signals that can influence investors' risk assessments, trust, and economic decisions. Through a search and analysis of relevant international academic literature, this study synthesizes empirical findings linking cognitive and emotional processes with brain activity, particularly in the prefrontal cortex, which plays a role in decision-making and financial information processing. This study also examines how an fNIRS-based experimental design is used to capture the dynamics of neurophysiological responses when individuals are exposed to financial restatement information. The results of the literature review indicate that financial restatement disclosures trigger complex neurobehavioral responses, reflecting increased cognitive load, sensitivity to risk, and changes in attitudes and decision-making behavior. Furthermore, the existing literature indicates that non-invasive neuroimaging approaches such as fNIRS have great potential to enrich our understanding of the internal mechanisms underlying market reactions to accounting information. This research provides theoretical contributions by formulating an integrative conceptual framework between accounting, behavioral finance, and neuroscience, and methodological contributions by highlighting the opportunities and challenges of using fNIRS in experimental studies in financial reporting.
