Abstract:

This study aims to analyze the multidimensional effects of internal and external factors on dysfunctional behavior among functional supervisory officials at the Bondowoso Regency Inspectorate. The study employed a quantitative approach with an explanatory research design. Data were collected through questionnaires administered to 31 functional officials consisting of auditors and PPUPD officers and analyzed using multiple linear regression with SPSS. The findings reveal that work motivation, competence, professional ethics, work environment, organizational culture, and government policy significantly affect dysfunctional behavior among functional supervisory officials. Organizational culture emerged as the most dominant influencing factor. These findings indicate that dysfunctional behavior in public sector oversight is simultaneously shaped by both personal and organizational factors. Practically, the results recommend that regional inspectorates strengthen integrity-based organizational culture, improve auditor competence, and enforce supervisory policies consistently. Theoretically, this study extends the application of the Theory of Planned Behavior and Organizational Behavior Theory within the context of dysfunctional behavior among public sector supervisory officials. The novelty of this study lies in the development of a multidimensional model integrating internal and external factors to explain dysfunctional behavior among local government functional officials.

KeyWords:
