Machiavellianism is not able to be a mediating variable in this relationship. Theoretical Contribution/Originality: This research can directly and indirectly contribute academically and practically; academically, this research serves as a foundation for further research in research on organizational behaviors such as ethical decision making of tax consultants, with the inclusion of several additional variables, such as Machiavellianism, professional attitude and organizational culture.]]>
