Download or read book The Effects of Business and Philosophy Instruction on the Moral Development of College Students written by Bruce Stiller and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Based upon Lawrence Kohlberg's theory of moral development, this study compared the relative effectiveness of two college programs -- Business and Philosophy -- in facilitating development through the stages of moral development defined by Kohlberg. A cross-sectional approach was selected owing to the practical impossibilities of proceeding with longitudinal investigation. This led to the formation of four groups, which received the appelations of Beginning Philosophy Majors, Advanced Philosophy Majors, Beginning Business Majors, and Advanced Business Majors, respectively. Kohlberg's Horal Judgment Interview was selected as the means of measuring moral maturity. Three null hypotheses were formed. The first predicted that ''Beginning Philosophy Majors will not score significantly higher in moral maturity as measured by the Kohlberg Moral Judgment Interview than Advanced Business Majors". The second null hypothesis predicted that "Advanced Philosophy Majors will not score significantly higher on the Kohlberg Moral Judgment Interview than Advanced Business Majors", and the third predicted that "The mean difference in moral maturity as measured by the Kohlberg Moral Judgment Interview between Beginning and Advanced Philosophy Majors will not be significantly greater than the mean difference between Beginning and Advanced Business Majors". Each group consisted of eight volunteers. The experimental procedure required each participant to: 1. Complete a Biographical Information Sheet. 2. Respond orally to a set of questions and probes relating to the moral dilemmas of the Moral Judgment Interview. 3. Take the Slosson IQ test. As the above would imply, certain controls were built into the design. Since the variables age, IQ, and G.P.A all relate highly to stage of moral reasoning, the four groups were roughly equated with respect to these variables. Since a two factor [analysis] of variance revealed the presence of two main and one interaction effects, individual t tests were performed to test each of the three null hypotheses. The .05 level of significance was adopted for each of the three one-tailed tests (each of the three predictions had been directional). The results of the statistical analysis led to the rejection of null hypothesis #2 and null hypothesis #3, but failed to allow a rejection of null hypothesis #1. This led to the conclusion that the difference in moral maturity between Beginning and Advanced Philosophy Majors is greater than that between Beginning and Advanced Business Majors. Consequently, it was inferred from these results that philosophy majors pass through Kohlberg's stages of moral reasoning at a more rapid pace than do business majors. In the final chapter, the question of "Why should the moral maturity of philosophy majors proceed more rapidly than that of business majors?", was explored. A cognitive-developmental interpretation of this finding was advanced, followed by a listing of the study's weaknesses, and in particular those weaknesses which might cast doubt upon the plausibility of the interpretation advanced. And finally, some suggestions for further study which might help answer some of the questions which had surfaced during the course of the present study were included"--Document.

Download or read book Ethics Education of Business Leaders written by Tom E. Culham and published by IAP. This book was released on 2013-08-01 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Events on Wall Street and Main Street reveal that some business leaders make dramatically unethical self-serving decisions that ignore the public interest. How can business schools educate future business leaders to make ethical decisions? Unfortunately, most business schools fail in teaching ethical decision-making. They erroneously assume that such decision-making is primarily conscious and reason-based, reflecting the western cultural orientation toward science and logic. In this book, Thomas Culham cites neurological findings showing that unconscious processes and emotions play a much more significant role than reason in making ethical decisions. Culham urges business schools to teach a modified form of emotional intelligence, linked with research-supported contemplative practices from the great meditative traditions. This book details the author's ethics curriculum and explains its successful application at the Sauder School of Business at the University of British Columbia. This fascinating, interdisciplinary, and highly practical curriculum integrates philosophy (virtue ethics), Daoist thinking, psychology, and neuroscience. This curriculum intends to transform the way business schools teach decision making. Such an effort might just transform the way we do business.

Download or read book A Correlational Study Exploring the Relationship Between the Teaching of Ethics in Business Schools and the Ethical Behavior of College Students in Those Shcools written by Jeffrey P. Horwitz and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this quantitative correlational study was to discover how colleges and universities impact the moral development of their undergraduate school of business students through the method by which they teach ethics in their curricula. To address the stated problem of understanding the impact of ethics and its effect on the moral development of students, the research question that drove this study involved discovering if there was a relationship between the ethical decisions undergraduate college business students make (like deciding whether to cheat on exams and/or assignments) and the way ethics content was delivered. In answering the research question, five hypotheses were tested that included: Students who have received instruction in stand-alone ethics courses are less likely to display cheating behavior; a student’s age, year in school and gender will each predict cheating propensity; students that exhibit a deep form of learning will be less likely to make unethical decisions in their college careers; and students that exhibit a strategic or surface form of learning will be more likely to make unethical decisions in their college careers. Two scales were used, one that measured the three forms of learning and one that measured cheating propensity. The methodology involved convenience sampling of the students from the Midwestern school that agreed to participate in the study. The survey was fully completed by 206 participants who met the criteria for this study. The results of this research revealed that there was a significant relationship between how ethics courses were delivered to students and their propensity to cheat. Furthermore, age and year in school were valid predictors of cheating behavior, but gender was not. Lastly, the students learning method was not a significant predictor of cheating behavior.
