Abstract: | This is a study of the effects of a number of background variables on ethical perceptions of Mexican and U.S. marketers. This
research investigates how a marketer’s personal religiousness, relativism, and the ethical values influence in perceptions
of the degree of ethical problems in hypothetical marketing scenarios. It also examines differences between Mexican and U.S.
marketers on these variables. The results show significant differences in perception between the countries, and we discuss
the implications of these differences for cross-cultural business activities.
