Introduction: Moral disengagement refers to the justification of harmful behavior by a person and freedom from moral standards in a specific context and time. Knowing the predictors of moral disengagement leads to a better understanding of the factors that cause it. The purpose of this research was to predict moral disengagement based on dark personality traits and belief in a just world among Marketers of Urmia city during Corona.Method: The design of the present study was descriptive and correlational. The statistical population included all the marketers working in the markets of Urmia in 1401, their number was 5000, and 357 people were selected using the Morgan table using the Convenience sampling method. Data collection tools were moral disengagement by Bandura, dark personality traits by Jonason & Webster, and BJW by Sutton & Douglas. Data were analyzed using Pearson's correlation coefficient and regression. Results: The results showed that: The dark triad of personality has a positive and significant relationship with the moral disengagement of the Marketers, and the belief in a just world has a negative and significant relationship with the moral disengagement. Also, the regression of stepwise results showed all three dark personality traits and belief in a just world are capable of explaining the general belief in a just world of marketers.Conclusion: According to these results, the dark triad of personality and belief in a just world can explain moral disengagement and can be used to identify the underlying factors of moral disengagement (P= 0/05).
