ABSTRACT: The special unethical behavior-unethical pro-organizational behavior has attracted scholars’ attention in recent years. It refers to the unethical behaviors which are conducive to the organization that the employees intend to make but violate the social ethical standards. When this concept was first proposed, it has been widely studied by scholars, especially the influencing factors of it. But the content of these researches is rather fragmented and lacks systematic grooming. Based on relevant research in China and abroad, we’ll collate and summarize the literature in this field. Firstly, concept, dimensions and measurement of unethical pro-organizational behaviors will be introduced. Then, we’ll summarize the influencing factors and mechanisms of it. Finally, based on these, the future research directions in this field will be proposed so that scholars can carry out further research.
