Abstract

One can restructure institutions, but if individual-level motivations for corrupt behavior are not understood, these restructuring may not be effective. We introduce an evolutionary-game modeling to deal with the problem of corruption driven by imitative behavior. Highlights ► We develop an evolutionary dynamics to study corrupt behavior. ► There exists a threshold from which agents prefer to follow a non-corrupt behavior. ► A key variable is the reviewing rate of imitation for the choices of behavior.
