The purpose of this study was to find out which one of the four selected predictor variables, i.e., leadership, trusting beliefs, role values, and information security policy awareness are most influential in predicting employees’ intention to comply with organizational information security policy. An instrument with five constructs was administered to subjects from a higher-education university in the USA. Collected data were methodically examined through multiple regression analysis. Results indicated that all four predictor variables were influential in predicting employees’ intention to comply with organizational information security policy requirements. Implications of the findings are discussed and recommendations for future research are made.
