In this study, data were taken from the most recent World Values Survey. Forty-eight countries were included in the study. Age was found to be a significant demographic variable in slightly less than half of the countries surveyed. In most cases where there was a significant difference in mean scores, the oldest age group had the strongest opposition to bribe taking. Three exceptions were Indonesia, Iran, and Tajikistan, where the oldest age group had the least opposition to bribe taking. © The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2023.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessAgeBriberyCorruptionEconomic philosophyEconomic sociologyEthicsBook Chapter22723910.1007/978-3-031-17707-1_132-s2.0-85170185485N/A
