Ethical dilemmas involving tax issues were identified by members of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
as posing the most difficult ethical problem for them (Finn et al., Journal of Business Ethics
7(8), pp. 607–609, 1988). The KPMG tax shelter fraud case proves that the tax profession has not gone untainted in the age
of numerous accounting and corporate scandals, such as the Enron débacle (Sikka and Hampton, Accounting Forum
29(3), 325–343, 2005). High-profile scandals serve to highlight the problems caused by differences in ethical judgement among
accountants and tax practitioners and the issue of ethics has been brought publicly to the forefront of the profession. Nevertheless,
the nature and dimension of ethical issues in tax practice have been largely unexplored (Erard, Journal of Public Economics
52(2), 163–197, 1993; Marshall et al., Journal of Business Ethics
17(12), 1265–1279, 1998; Frecknall Hughes, Unpublished PhD Thesis, The University of Leeds, 2002). This research aims to contribute
to the debate on ethics in tax practice by reporting interview data on tax practitioners’ perceptions of ethics in the jurisdictions
of Ireland and the United Kingdom and exploring the link or equation of ethics with risk management. 相似文献

We find that agency problems are embedded in firm’s excess and abnormal equity investments that are mainly dictated by controlling
shareholder’s motives and ethical choices manifested in ownership and board structure. The excess equity investment is gauged
with respect to industry average. The abnormal equity investment is specifically referred to the number of nominal investment
companies that are fully controlled by the controlling owners while subject to little governance. Our empirical evidences
of 345 Taiwanese non-financial listed firms show that firm’s excess and abnormal equity investments are negatively correlated
with controlling shareholder’s cash flow rights while are positively correlated with the control–cash flow deviation, and
board affiliation. The results are supportive of the positive incentive hypothesis and the negative entrenchment hypothesis
put forth by La Porta et al. (2002, Journal of Finance
57, 1147–1171) and Claessen et al. (2002, Journal of Finance
57, 2741–2742). The negative relation between equity investment and firm’s value further supports the agency postulation that
corporate excess and abnormal equity investments represent a leeway for controlling shareholder to exploit wealth of minority
shareholders. This study potentially contributes to the literature of business ethics by portraying an empirically testable
linkage from controlling owner’s ethical choices to his actions and therefore firm’s value.

The public accounting industry’s voluntary code of conduct in the United States is the American Institute of CPA’s Code of
Professional Conduct. Based on our analysis, we conclude that the accounting industry’s current code is limited in its ability
to serve the public interest in three respects. Specifically, the code is input-based, requires no third-party attestation
of compliance with the code, and contains no public reporting process of code compliance/noncompliance at the accounting firm
level. We propose that the accounting profession should reorient its largely input-based Code of Professional Conduct to include
output-based performance measurements. We also conclude that third-party attestation of compliance with the profession’s code
would help to promote compliance. Finally, we maintain that the accounting industry should initiate a public reporting process
at the individual accounting firm level. Such a requirement would add a degree of public accountability as to whether a firm
complies or fails to comply with the industry’s voluntary code of conduct.

This study examined experimentally the effect of retaliation strength and accounting students’ level of moral reasoning, on
their propensity to blow the whistle (PBW) when faced with a serious wrongdoing. Fifty-one senior accounting students enrolled
in an auditing course offered by a large New Zealand university participated in the study. Participants responded to three
hypothetical whistle-blowing scenarios and completed an instrument that measured moral reasoning (Welton et al., 1994, Accounting Education. International Journal (Toronto, Ont.)
3(1), 35–50) on one of two conditions – i.e., strong or weak retaliation for whistle-blowing. Consistent with the results of
Arnold and Ponemon (1991, Auditing: A Journal of Practice and Theory
10, 1–15) this study found that the strength of retaliation and participants’ moral reasoning level positively affected their
PBW. Unlike results reported in Arnold and Ponemon (1991, Auditing; A Journal of Practice and Theory
10, 1–15) a significant interaction effect of moral reasoning level and retaliation on participants’ PBW was not found. However,
results showed that a participant’s gender has a significant effect on the relationship between his or her moral reasoning
level and PBW. These results support the need to improve ethical awareness through accounting education and to increase protection
for whistle-blowing (Miceli 2004, Journal of Management Inquiry
13, 364–366). Furthermore, many participants found it difficult to take a stand when serious wrongdoing is discovered. Therefore,
policymakers must exercise caution when placing heavy reliance on whistle-blowing, especially when whistle-blower protection
processes are complex and not easily accessible, and processes to facilitate whistle-blowing may vary substantially between
public and private sector organizations (Scholtens, 2003, Review of the operation of the Protected Disclosures Act 2000: Report to the Minister of State Services). 相似文献

This paper applies Wempe’s (2005, Business Ethics Quarterly
15(1), 113–135) boundary conditions that define the external and internal logics for contractarian business ethics theory, as a system of argumentation for evaluating current or prospective institutional arrangements for arriving at the “good life,” based on the principles and practices of social justice. It does so by showing that a more dynamic, process-oriented, and pluralist ‘dialogic twist’ to Donaldson and Dunfee’s (2003, ‘Social Contracts: sic et non’, in P. Heugens, H. van Oosterhout and J. Vromen (eds.), The Social Institutions of Capitalism: Evolution and Design of Social Contracts (Cheltenham, UK, Edward Elgar Publishing, Ltd.) pp. 109–126; 1999, Ties that Bind: A Social Contracts Approach to Business Ethics (Boston, MA, Harvard Business School Press); 1995, Economics and Philosophy
11(1), 85–112; 1994, Academy of Management Review
19(2), 252–284.) integrated social contracting theory (ISCT) of economic ethics will further develop this promising and influential approach to moral reasoning, ethical decision-making, and stakeholder governance. This evolutionary, interactive learning-based model of ethical norm generation via dialogic stakeholder engagement is particularly appropriate within economic communities that are experiencing value conflict and pressures for institutional change.Jerry M. Calton is Professor of Management at the University of Hawaii at Hilo. His research interests encompass multi-stakeholder learning dialogue, trust-based network governance, and the social contracting approach to ethical decision-making.

An Examination of the Structure
of Executive Compensation and Corporate Social Responsibility:
A Canadian Investigation 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
We explore the extent to which Boards use executive compensation to incite firms to act in accordance with social and environmental objectives (e.g., Johnson, R. and D. Greening: 1999, Academy of Management Journal
42(5), 564–578 ; Kane, E. J.: 2002, Journal of Banking and Finance
26, 1919–1933.). We examine the association between executive compensation and corporate social responsibility (CSR) for 77 Canadian firms using three key components of executives’ compensation structure: salary, bonus, and stock options. Similar to prior research (McGuire, J., S. Dow and K. Argheyd: 2003, Journal of Business Ethics
45(4), 341–359), we measure three different aspects of CSR, which include Total CSR as well as CSR Strengths and CSR Weaknesses. CSR Strengths and CSR Weaknesses capture the positive and negative aspects of CSR, respectively. We find significant positive relationships between: (1) Salary and CSR Weaknesses, (2) Bonus and CSR Strengths, (3) Stock Options and Total CSR; and (4) Stock Options and CSR Strengths. Our findings suggest the importance of the structure of executive compensation in encouraging socially responsible actions, particularly for larger Canadian firms. This in turn suggests that executive compensation can be an effective tool in aligning executives’ welfare with that of the “common good”, which results in more socially responsible firms (Bebchuk, L., J. Fried and D. Walker: 2002, The University of Chicago Law Review
69, 751–846; Zalewski, D.: 2003, Journal of Economic Issues
37(2), 503–509). In addition, our findings suggest the importance of institutional context in influencing the association between executive compensation and CSR. Further implications for practice and research are discussed.Lois. Mahoney is an Assistant Professor at Eastern Michigan University.

The importance of personal connections and relationships, or guanxi when doing business with the Chinese is widely acknowledged amongst Western academics and business managers alike. However,
aspects of guanxi-related behaviours in the workplace are often misunderstood by Westerners with some going so far as to equate guanxi with forms of corruption. This study extends earlier study of Tan and Snell: 2002, Journal of Business Ethics
41(December), 361–384) in its investigation of the underlying modes of moral reasoning in ethical decisions relating to aspects
of guanxi, amongst Hong Kong managers. Managers’ ethical judgements and underlying moral reasoning relating to a series of guanxi-related behaviours were recorded. Content analysis yielded categories that correspond with categories of moral reasoning
described in Kohlberg’s (1969, Handbook of Socialization Theory and Research, Rand McNally, Chicago, pp. 347–480) model. As hypothesised, it was found that harsher ethical evaluations of guanxi-related behaviours were positively correlated with the stage of moral reasoning. The most common types of reasoning were
those corresponding to Kohlberg’s stages four and five which relate to moral reasoning based on law and order, and on reason
rather than emotion. Stage 6, concerned with more universalistic approaches to moral reasoning, was utilised considerably
less, consistent with popularly held beliefs of the relativistic nature of Chinese ethics. 相似文献

Four predictors were posited to affect business student attitudes about the social responsibilities of business, also known
as corporate social responsibility (CSR). Applying Forsyth’s (1980, Journal of Personality and Social Psychology
39, 175–184, 1992, Journal of Business Ethics
11, 461–470) personal moral philosophy model, we found that ethical idealism had a positive relationship with CSR attitudes,
and ethical relativism a negative relationship. We also found materialism to be negatively related to CSR attitudes. Spirituality
among business students did not significantly predict CSR attitudes. Understanding the relationship between CSR attitudes
and the significant predictors has important implications for researchers and teachers in particular. 相似文献

Despite their ethical intentions, ethically minded consumers rarely purchase ethical products (Auger and Devinney: 2007, Journal of Business Ethics
76, 361–383). This intentions–behaviour gap is important to researchers and industry, yet poorly understood (Belk et al.: 2005, Consumption, Markets and Culture
8(3), 275–289). In order to push the understanding of ethical consumption forward, we draw on what is known about the intention–behaviour
gap from the social psychology and consumer behaviour literatures and apply these insights to ethical consumerism. We bring
together three separate insights – implementation intentions (Gollwitzer: 1999, American Psychologist
54(7), 493–503), actual behavioural control (ABC) (Ajzen and Madden: 1986, Journal of Experimental Social Psychology
22, 453–474; Sheeran et al.: 2003, Journal of Social Psychology, 42, 393–410) and situational context (SC) (Belk: 1975, Journal of Consumer Research
2, 157–164) – to construct an integrated, holistic conceptual model of the intention–behaviour gap of ethically minded consumers.
This holistic conceptual model addresses significant limitations within the ethical consumerism literature, and moves the
understanding of ethical consumer behaviour forward. Further, the operationalisation of this model offers insight and strategic
direction for marketing managers attempting to bridge the intention–behaviour gap of the ethically minded consumer. 相似文献

Auditors’ virtue comprises those qualities of character that manifest the ideals of the audit community (c.f., Maclntyre,
1984, After Virtue. (University of Notre Dame Press, Notre Dame)), and are instrumental in ensuring that auditors’ professional judgment is
exercised according to a high moral standard (Thorne, 1998, Research on Accounting Ethics. (JAI Press, Greenwich, CT)). Nevertheless, the lack of valid and reliable quantitative measures of auditors’ virtue impedes
research that furthers our understanding of how best to promote virtue in the audit community. To address this gap, we develop
two measures of auditors’ virtue. We report the results of the validity and reliability of the scales. In addition, we use
the findings from the administration of these scales to professional accountants to refine and validate the theoretical characterization
of virtues developed by Pincoffs (1986, Quandaries and Virtues. University Press of Kansas, Lawrence, KS) and Libby and Thorne (2004, Business Ethics Quarterly). In so doing, this study provides a foundation by which future audit research can study ways to ensure that auditors’ virtue
is promoted throughout the audit community.

A majority of the countries in the world are still considered “developing,” with a per capita income of less than U$1,000.
Hahn (2008, Journal of Business Ethics
78, 711–721) recently proposed an ambitious business ethics research agenda for integrating the “bottom-of-the-pyramid” countries
(Prahalad and Hart, 2002, Strategy and Competition
20, 2–14) through sustainable development and corporate citizenship. Hahn’s work is among the growing field of research in comparative
business ethics including the global business ethics index (Michalos, 2008, Journal of Business Ethics
79(1), 9–19; Scholtens and Dam, 2008, Journal of Business Ethics
75(3), 273–284; Tsalikis and Seaton, 2008, Journal of Business Ethics
75(3), 229–238). This article is complementary to Hahn’s work and it advocates an urgent need for business ethics researchers
to globally integrate the bottom-of-the-pyramid countries through a fundamental re-definition of the global economic triad,
including the United States, Western Europe, and Japan [Ohmae, 1985, Triad Power: The Coming Shape of Global Competition (New York: Free Press)]. The definition that we propose is based on business systems and institutional perspectives that
include the bottom-of-the-pyramid countries. We also propose to broaden the research in business ethics to enable comparisons
across business systems indifferent income levels. 相似文献

The response of consumers to a firm’s ethical behavior and the underlying factors influencing/forming each consumer’s response
outcome is analyzed in this article based on information obtained through interviews. The results indicate that, in the Chinese
context, the responding outcome can be boiled down to five types, namely, resistance, questioning, indifference, praise, and
support. Additionally, consumers’ responses were mainly influenced by the specific consumer’s ethical consciousness, ethical
cognitive effort, perception of ethical justice, motivation judgment, institutional rationality, and corporate social responsibility–corporate
ability (CSR–CA) belief. Based on these results, a generalized framework of consumer’s ethical responses is developed which
provides a number of insightful suggestions upon how to motivate a consumer’s support of a firm’s ethical behavior and to
transfer this kind of support into truly positive purchasing behavior. 相似文献

Bullying is a serious problem in today’s workplace, in that, a large percentage of employees have either been bullied or knows
someone who has. There are a variety of ethical concerns dealing with bullying—that is, courses of action to manage the bullying
contain serious ethical/legal concerns. The inadequacies of legal protections for bullying in the U.S. workplace also compound
the approaches available to deal ethically with bullying. While Schumann (2001, Human Resource Management Review
11, 93–111) does not explicitly examine bullying, the five moral principles that he advocates can be applied to judge the ethics
of bullying in the workplace. A possible limitation of this model is that, it is designed to be normative (judgmental), and
while it does take into consideration the relationships among the victim, the perpetrator, the groups in the organization,
and the organization itself in judging the ethics of bullying, it does not explicitly consider the process by which bullying
might develop and persist. In order to gain a deeper understanding of the dynamics of this process, Nijhof and Rietdijk (1999, Journal of Business Ethics
20(1), 39–50)) suggest applying an A–B–C (antecedents, behaviors, and consequences) model to help understand the dynamics of
bullying in the workplace. Formal propositions are offered to guide both academics and practitioners to an enriched understanding
of the ethics of workplace bullying. 相似文献

This study examines the impact of the strength of an accounting firm’s ethical environment (presence and reinforcement vis-à-vis
the presence of a code of conduct) on the quality of auditor judgment, across different levels of audit expertise. Using a
2 × 2 full factorial ‹between subjects’ experimental design, with audit managers and audit seniors, the impact of different
levels of strength of the ethical environment on auditor judgments was assessed with a realistic audit scenario, requiring
participants to make judgments in respect of an inventory writedown. Based on prior research, and as hypothesized, participants
possessing greater auditing experience made higher quality technical judgments. While there were no significant differences
between the quality of audit judgments made by participants in the stronger ethical environment, over-all results indicate
that managers are more sensitive to differences in the strength of the ethical environment than seniors. This is consistent
with the hypothesis, and with prior research which suggests that the impact of the code will only be significant if it has
been bilaterally internalized by individuals. This has important implications for accounting firms and regulators, given that
the International Standard on Quality Control 1, requires the communication and reinforcement of ethical principles as part
of firms' quality control processes. It suggests that firms will need to carefully consider the means by which they communicate
and reinforce ethical principles, as it is possible to differentially impact auditors of different rank. 相似文献

Decades of empirical and theoretical research has produced an extensive literature on the ethical judgments construct. Given
its importance to understanding people’s ethical choices, future research should explore the psychological processes that
produce ethical judgments. In this paper, the authors discuss two steps needed to advance this effort. First, they note that
the business ethics literature lacks a single, generally accepted definition of ethical judgments. After reviewing several
extant definitions, the authors offer a definition of the construct and discuss its advantages. Second, future ethical judgment
research would benefit from greater integration between theories of ethical decision making and theories of social cognition.

39(November), 752–766, 1980), the authors present a brief research agenda intended to stimulate research on the psychological processes behind ethical
judgments. 相似文献

This study examines the role of acculturation in shaping consumers’ views of ethics. Specifically, it examines the relationships
between the desire to keep one’s original culture, the desire to adopt the host culture, and the four dimensions of the Muncy
and Vitell (Journal of Business Research Ethics 24(4), 297, 1992) consumer ethics scale. Using two separate immigrant populations – one of former Middle-Eastern residents now
living in the U.S. and the other of Asian immigrants in the U.S. – results indicate that those who want to keep their original
culture are less tolerant of unethical consumer activities, while those who are more willing to adopt the host culture are more tolerant of these same consumer activities. Furthermore, the immigrants in both studies who are more tolerant of unethical consumer activities are those who are generally somewhat younger and with less formal education. The
relationship between gender and consumer ethics was not significant. 相似文献

Lapses in ethical conduct by those in corporate and public authority worldwide have given business researchers and practitioners
alike cause to re-examine the antecedents to personal ethical values. We explore the relationship between ethical values and
an individual’s long-term orientation or LTO, defined as the degree to which one plans for and considers the future, as well
as values traditions of the past. Our study also examines the role of work ethic and conservative attitudes in the formation
of a person’s long-term orientation and consequent ethical beliefs. Empirically testing these hypothesized relationships using
data from 292 subjects, we find that long-term perspectives on tradition and planning indeed engender higher levels of ethical
values. The results also support work ethic’s role in fostering tradition and planning, as well as conservatism’s positive
association with planning. Additionally, we report how tradition and planning mediate the influence of conservatism and work
ethic on the formation of ethical values. Limitations of the study and future research directions, as well as implications
for business managers and academics, are also discussed.

The factor structure of the Multidimensional Ethics Scale (MES; Reidenbach and Robin: 1988, Journal of Business Ethics
7, 871–879; 1990, Journal of Business Ethics
9, 639–653) was examined for the 8-item short form (N = 328) and the original 30-item pool (N = 260). The objectives of the study were: to verify the dimensionality of the MES; to increase the amount of true cross-scenario
variance through the use of 18 scenarios varying in moral intensity (Jones: 1991, Academy of Management Review
16, 366–395); and, to examine the items for measurement precision using item-response theory (IRT) methods. Results of confirmatory
and exploratory factor analysis failed to conclusively support the hypothesized 3- (short form) or 5-factor (long form) structure;
both instruments were instead dominated by a general factor. Item response theory analyses using Samejima’s (1969, Psychometrika Monograph Supplement
34, (4, Pt. 2)) graded response model revealed that many items in the 30-item pool performed very well, and suggested that a
different collection of items be used to form a short-form version of the MES. Our proposed 10-item instrument includes more
discriminating items than the 8-item version, and has the added advantage of including two items from each of the five ethical
philosophies represented in the original 30-item pool.
