The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of Ethical Leadership on job engagement, organizational commitment and unethical pro-organizational behavior and to analyze the dual mediation effect of job engagement and organizational commitment. We used 565 questionnaires collected by members in domestic companies. The result of the analyses are as follows: First, Ethical Leadership has no positive effect on unethical pro-organizational behavior. Second, in the relationship between Ethical Leadership and unethical pro-organizational behavior, job engagement does not play a mediating role, but organizational commitment plays a mediating role. Third, in the relationship between Ethical Leadership and unethical pro-organizational behavior, job engagement and organizational commitment play a dual mediating role. The theoretical implication is that this study once again confirmed the behavior patterns such as cognition, emotion, attitude and behavior of members in the organization. In addition, this study can contribute to theoretical expansion by explaining that these behavior patterns are identified by social exchange theory. The practical implication is that this study confirmed that members in the actual management field are willing to perform unethical pro-organizational behavior in order to achieve the organization's goal efficiently and effectively. Therefore, it is suggested that active efforts should be made to recognize these negative influences and possibilities at the organization level and to create a clean and fair organizational culture and environment that everyone can recognize at the social level.

Platform contrasts with traditional industry in terms of innovativeness as it is rapidly developing with information technology. To redeem preceding researches which have separately focused on either platform acceptance based on technology acceptance model or resistance factors against platform's innovation, this study applied dual factor theory to check the simultaneous influence of enablers and inhibitors on resistance. This study chose purchasers of online used trading platform as a subject of study since it contrasts with other platforms in many characteristics. Based on preceding studies, the moderating effects of their past purchase numbers on the relations between resistance and use intention were also checked. The findings reveal that economic benefit as an enabler had significant negative influence on the resistance, but social influence didn't have expected influence. In case of inhibitors, both perceived complexity and perceived risk had significant positive influence on the resistance. Though resistance had significant negative influence on the use intention, its influence was moderated into the positive direction as users' purchase number increased. Lastly, resistance had mediation effect between antecedent factors (economic benefit and perceived complexity) and use intention.
