Ethical Decision Making by Individuals in Organizations: An Issue-Contingent Model
提出一个议题权变模型，引入“道德强度”这一新变量，认为它影响道德决策和行为的每个环节，并给出四个研究命题。
Existing theoretical models of individual ethical decision making in organizations place little or no emphasis on characteristics of the ethical issue itself. This article (a) proposes an issue-contingent model containing a new set of variables called moral intensity; (b) using concepts, theory, and evidence derived largely from social psychology, argues that moral intensity influences every component of moral decision making and behavior; (c) offers four research propositions: and (d) discusses implications of the theory.
