Abstract

This study examined the effectiveness of Values Clarification (VCT) and Emotional Intelligence Training (EIT) on zero-tolerance for corruption among customs officers in the South-West, Nigeria. A pretest-posttest, control group quasi-experimental design, with a 3x2x2 factorial matrix was adopted. Multi-stage sampling procedure, inclusion criteria and screening tool was used in selecting the participants for the study. The participants were randomly assigned to VCT, EIT and control groups, respectively. Hypotheses were answered at 0.05 level of significance. Using Analysis of covariance, the two interventions were found to be effective in fostering zero-tolerance for corruption among the participants. Based on the finding, it is recommended that these psychological interventions should be integrated into the existing anti-corruption measures in the Nigeria Customs Service.
