arena. Data for the Business Ethics Index (BEI) were gathered in three countries of the European Union (UK, Germany, Spain).

This article examines the relevance and value of Confucian Ethics to contemporary Business Ethics by comparing their respective
perspectives and approaches towards business activities within the modern capitalist framework, the principle of reciprocity
and the concept of human virtues. Confucian Ethics provides interesting parallels with contemporary Western-oriented Business
Ethics. At the same, it diverges from contemporary Business Ethics in some significant ways. Upon an examination of philosophical
texts as well as empirical studies, it is argued that Confucian Ethics is able to provide some unique philosophical and intellectual
perspectives in order to forge a richer understanding and analysis of the field of contemporary Business Ethics.

Recent research suggests there may be a link between religiousness and business ethics. This study seeks to add to the understanding
of the relationship through a questionnaire survey on Malaysian Christians in business. The questionnaire taps into three
different constructs. The religiousness construct is reflected in the level of participation in various common religious activities.
The love of money construct is captured through the Love of Money Scale as used in Luna-Arocas and Tang [Journal of Business Ethics
50 (2004) 329]. Response to 25 business vignettes taken from Conroy and Emerson [Journal of Business Ethics
50 (2004) 383] would surface ethical attitudes. A convenience sample of 300 was drawn from three large churches in the Kuala Lumpur
area each with a congregation exceeding 1000 together with some representation from the smaller churches. The study finds
some differences in the ethical attitudes of Malaysian Christians in business with different levels of religiousness. The
study also finds that those longer in the faith are less accepting of unethical behavior. As such it can be concluded that
there are ethical attitude differences between Christians in business with different levels of religiousness. This lends support
to the claim of a positive relationship between religion and business ethics. The more significant finding is that even within
a somewhat homogenous religious group there are different love of money profiles resulting in significant differences in ethical
attitudes. This suggests that moderating money attitudes can contribute towards stronger ethical attitudes.

Companies offer ethics codes and training to increase employees’ ethical conduct. These programs can also enhance individual
work attitudes because ethical organizations are typically valued. Socially responsible companies are likely viewed as ethical
organizations and should therefore prompt similar employee job responses. Using survey information collected from 313 business
professionals, this exploratory study proposed that perceived corporate social responsibility would mediate the positive relationships
between ethics codes/training and job satisfaction. Results indicated that corporate social responsibility fully or partially
mediated the positive associations between four ethics program variables and individual job satisfaction, suggesting that
companies might better manage employees’ ethical perceptions and work attitudes with multiple policies, an approach endorsed
in the ethics literature.

This study conducted an empirical survey of 126 Business Ethics students in business and management departments within two universities across the Taiwan Strait to evaluate the impact on these managers-to-be of receiving an education in Business Ethics. The results show that, after receiving that Business Ethics education, students in both universities demonstrated significant improvements in the ethical weighting of their individual values, their recognition of ethical issues and their performance as ethical decision-makers. However, in respect of ethical decision-making, the behavior of these students is still sub-optimal, indicating a need for further improvements in the ethical education of managers-to-be across the Taiwan Strait. 相似文献

Various international authorities have insisted on the importance of ethical learning in higher education for would-be professionals,
including students of Business Administration. As the process of creating the European Higher Education Area gathers pace,
first steps have been taken to explicitly incorporate ethics in the common European Qualifications Framework (EQF). However,
the authors of this study show how in the course of the EQF development process, the consideration given to ethical qualifications
has been curtailed and subjected to serious limitations. In this article, the authors review the historical development and
the main elements of the EQF. Then, they analyze the gradual elimination of ethics within the EQF. Finally, they highlight
the implications of this gradual elimination and propose avenues for further research.

The Effectiveness of Business Codes: A Critical
Examination of Existing Studies and the Development of an Integrated Research Model 总被引:3,自引:2,他引:1
Business codes are a widely used management instrument. Research into the effectiveness of business codes has, however, produced
conflicting results. The main reasons for the divergent findings are: varying definitions of key terms; deficiencies in the
empirical data and methodologies used; and a lack of theory. In this paper, we propose an integrated research model and suggest
directions for future research.

The objective of this study was to assess whether, and how, the attitudes towards business ethics of former South African business students have changed between the early 1990s and 2010. The study used the Attitudes Toward Business Ethics Questionnaire and applied a comparative analysis between leading business schools in South Africa. The findings of this study found a significant change in attitudes based on a set time frame, with a trend towards stronger opinions on business ethics and espoused values. Eleven factors came out as fundamental, although they were less able to explain the variation in the attitudes than the previous study. A significant change in the rankings of variables was noted and indicated a shift in attitude toward a teleological moral philosophy as well as utilitarian motives. This shows a clear trend towards compliance-based ethics, which can be explained by the proliferation of business legislation and regulation in the wake of recent corporate governance failures and the subsequent global financial crisis. 相似文献

Business Ethics Index: Measuring Consumer Sentiments Toward Business Ethical Practices 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The present study describes the development of an ongoing and systematic index to measure consumers’ sentiments towards business
ethical practices. The Business Ethics Index (BEI) is based on the well established measurements of consumer sentiments, namely
the ICS (Index of Consumer Sentiment) and CBCCI (Conference Board Consumer Confidence Index). The BEI is comprised of 4 measurements
representing the dimensions of “personal-vicarious” and “past-future.” Data from 503 telephone interviews were used to calculate
a BEI of 107. This indicates an overall positive consumer sentiment towards the ethical behavior of business. Future calculations
of the BEI are planned which will allow for the estimation of the latent dynamics of trends in consumer sentiments toward
American business ethics. 相似文献

This article presents the results of a study that investigated the roles that one’s money ethic, religiosity and attitude
toward business play in determining consumer attitudes/beliefs in various situations regarding questionable consumer practices.
Two dimensions of religiosity – intrinsic and extrinsic religiousness – were studied. A global scale of money ethic was examined,
as was a global measure of attitude toward business. Results indicate that both types of religiosity as well as one’s money
ethic and attitude toward business were significant determinants of at least some types of consumer ethical beliefs.

The ethical issue of international bribery: A study of attitudes among U.S. business professionals 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Justin G. Longenecker Joseph A. McKinney Carlos W. Moore 《Journal of Business Ethics》1988,7(5):341-346
Restrictions upon international bribery by U.S. business firms, as incorporated in the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, have been controversial since this legislation was passed in 1977. Despite many attempts to repeal or change the law, it remains as originally enacted.This article reports on a survey of U.S. business professionals concerning international bribery. Response to our survey reveals a divided business community in terms of their opinions on the ethics of international payments prohibited by the present law.In addition to a lack of consensus about the morality of payments, the survey also reveals a diversity in the viewpoints of respondents. Moralism, pragmatism, cultural relativism, and legalism are four distinct underlying assumptions apparent in the attitudes of U.S. business professionals on the issue of questionable international payments.

Center for Business Ethics 《Journal of Business Ethics》1986,5(2):85-91
Very little has been done to find out what corporations have done to build ethical values into their organizations. In this report on a survey of 1984 Fortune 1000 industrial and service companies the Center for Business Ethics reveals some facts regarding codes of ethics, ethics committees, social audits, ethics training programs, boards of directors, and other areas where corporations might institutionalize ethics. Based on the survey, the Center for Business Ethics is convinced that corporations are beginning to take steps to institutionalize ethics, while recognizing that in most cases more specific mechanisms and strategies need to be implemented to make their ethics efforts truly effective.Established in 1976, The Center for Business Ethics at Bentley College is dedicated to providing a nonpartisan forum for the exchange of ideas on business ethics in an industrial society. Special emphasis is placed on these ideas as they relate to the activities of corporations, labor, government, special interest groups, and the professions. The Center sponsors National Conferences on Business Ethics, publishes their proceedings, works with academic institutions and corporations to set up business ethics courses and programs, and generally serves as a clearing house for ideas and materials on business ethics.The report and survey were prepared by the following people from the Center for Business Ethics: W. Michael Hoffman, Director; Ann Lange, Research Associate; Jennifer Mills Moore, Research Associate; Karen Donovan, Graduate Assistant; Paulette Mungillo, Aileene McDonagh, Paula Vanetti, Linda Ledoux, Staff Assistants. 相似文献

The main objective of this paper is to assess the attitude of a group of Malaysian business students towards business ethics. The survey results indicate that the respondents in general are of the opinion that the businesses in Malaysia consider ethics as secondary. A greater emphasis on ethical values in the business curricular has been strongly supported by the respondents. Moreover, the majority of the respondents believe that moral/ethical education and top management attitudes are the most important factors influencing ethical standards in business practices.Dr Kazi Firoz Alam is a Senior Lecturer at the Department of Accountancy, Massey University, New Zealand.

As a consequence of the collapse of a building in Barcelona, in December 1990, it was discovered that a large number of dwellings, mainly in Barcelona but also in other towns of Catalonia, were affected by a structural defect known as aluminosis, consisting of a deterioration of the reinforced concrete manufactured using aluminous cement, which considerably reduced its strength and that of the steel embedded in the concrete. This brought to light a series of economic, social, political and also moral problems, such as the use of the aluminous cement itself — a quality product but which requires careful handling —, the lack of regulation concerning the product and its use in construction, the poor state of repair of the buildings affected, the careless manner in which they had been built, the lag in technical knowledge, the financial situation of the people affected by the aluminosis, etc.This document provides a full account of the events and their historical, technical, economic and legal background, paying particular attention to the ethical problems created by the situation.Antonio Argandoña is Professor at IESE, the International Graduate School of Management of the University of Navarra in Barcelona (Spain), where he teaches Economics and Business Ethics. He is a member of the Executive Committee of EBEN (European Business Ethics Network), and of the Organizing Committees of the Second (Barcelona, 1989) and Sixth (Oslo, 1993) European Conferences on Business Ethics.

The results of a survey of 272 practicing accountants and 374 accounting students enrolled in six universities are analyzed.
Differences and similarities between the two groups with regard to their attitudes toward corporate social responsibility
are examined. The results indicate that the students exhibit greater concern about the ethical and discretionary components
of corporate responsibility and a weaker orientation toward economic performance. No significant differences between the two
groups were observed with respect to the legal dimension of corporate social responsibility. Some explanations as well as
limited generalizations and implications are developed.

This study explored several proposed relationships among professional ethical standards, corporate social responsibility,
and the perceived role of ethics and social responsibility. Data were collected from 313 business managers registered with
a large professional research association with a mailed self-report questionnaire. Mediated regression analysis indicated
that perceptions of corporate social responsibility partially mediated the positive relationship between perceived professional
ethical standards and the believed importance of ethics and social responsibility. Perceptions of corporate social responsibility
also fully mediated the negative relationship between perceived professional ethical standards and the subordination of ethics
and social responsibility. The results suggested that professions should develop ethical standards to encourage social responsibility,
since these actions are associated with enhanced employee ethical attitudes.
