Background: Numerous studies have examined psychological factors and the development of Pro-Social Rule Breaking behaviors, but there is a research gap regarding the study of the impact of psychological factors on the development of Pro-Social Rule Breaking behaviors. Aims: To investigate the effect of psychological factors on the development of benevolent law-breaking behaviors. Method: The research was applied in terms of purpose and descriptive-analytical in terms of the nature of the method. The statistical population included all the staff of Shiraz Regional Electricity Company in 2019. 150 employees were selected by regular random sampling. Research tools include the Daheling et al.'s (2012) Pro-Social Rule Breaking questionnaire, Wardman et al.'s self-efficacy and optimism questionnaire (2014), and Wardman et al.'s (2014) internal risk and internal control questionnaire. Data were analyzed using structural equation model. Results: The psychological variables of self-efficacy, optimism, risk-taking and internal control have a positive and significant effect on Pro-Social Rule Breaking (P< 0/01).
