Abstract
Extending previous research on antisocial rule-breaking in high school and entrepreneurship, we study a different form of rule-breaking—prosocial rule-breaking (PSRB) in the workplace. Based on the stewardship theory, we expect that employees’ affective organizational commitment will lead to employees’ PSRB, which, under some conditions, is related to entrepreneurial intentions to start new businesses. Our moderated mediation analysis on time-lagged data from 122 employees supported an indirect effect between affective organizational commitment and entrepreneurial intentions that is mediated by PSRB and moderated by age and entrepreneurial self-efficacy simultaneously. We discuss theoretical and practical implications.
