Book excerpt: Rethinking morality in managementscienceWhat is morality in management science? Why does management need to concern moral behavior? Because most management researchers feel whose behaviors are possible right, but in moral view point, whose behaviors are possible wrong. This is a subjective personal moral judgement to management researcher individual behavior in any organization. However, if the management researchers can know how to judge whose behaviors whether ar more moral reasons to be accepted in societies . The, who can judge how to choose to do more right moral behavior more correctly in any organizations.Some management scientists should not assume that one value can be objectively better than another, or that any values are objectively right or objectively wrong. So it brings this question: Are values objective? Are there sometime objective by god reasons to moral actions? Perhaps it is time to rethink hesitation about accepting moral objectivity in management search. Usually management researchers choose to decide to do immoral management behaviors. It is possible that who is seemed to have effort to help whose organization to gain benefits and dominant economy. So, in economic view point, the management researchers are helping their organizations to gain, it is possible that the management researchers do not feel who are doing immoral behaviors to assist their organizational development. Also, even whose behaviors are legal, but it is not represent their behaviors must be morality in societies. Hence, knowing how to judge whether it is moral behaviors, it is important to every management research in nowadays organizational environment. In any organizations, that agency theory fails to predict corporate performance, because of mechanisms of monitoring, independence and incentives ( Dalton et al. 2003: Dalton et al. 1999) . Due to this reason of self-interested, so management level staffs ( researchers) often do immoral behaviors to influence whose whole organizations to bring negative effect to publicity. Because management researchers will feel themselves self-interest is important than whole organizational interest. It is self interested immoral behaviors, although it is not represent themselves behaviors must be illegal in society.However, good explanations of moral / immoral behvior and how management researchers are affected by moral principles are ones that sometimes make use of the objective structure of moral reasoning. This relates to equate what ought to be with what " is". But is is to say that because management researchers think in ways about ethics, those patterns may be revealed in their actual behavior. Take a simple example related the value of fairness, e.g. the management researcher feels unfair compensation or welfare treatment or salary is provided from whose employer. So, it influence who choose to do immoral activities in whose organizations. So, it seems unfairness is a factor to cause management researcher's immoral behavior or the another factor of perhaps management researchers' hesitation to refer to moral principles when explaining behavior is from the assumption that moral reasons or principles can never serve as causal explanations of behavior.Anyway, in any organizations, permission and obligation in ethics necessity and possibility in logic principle is essential to be prohibited to every management researcher behavior. The reason is because just or unjust ( fair or unfair ) behaviors are caused by economical self-interest of human behavior ( management researcher behavior). Also, the prior organizational fair researchers are mostly explored relationships between fair or unfair behaviors in the one hand, and self-seeking motives on the other hand.

Book Handbook of Moral Behavior and Development

Download or read book Handbook of Moral Behavior and Development written by William M. Kurtines and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2014-01-02 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The publication of this unique three-volume set represents the culmination of years of work by a large number of scholars, researchers, and professionals in the field of moral development. The literature on moral behavior and development has grown to the point where it is no longer possible to capture the “state of the art” in a single volume. This comprehensive multi-volume Handbook marks an important transition because it provides evidence that the field has emerged as an area of scholarly activity in its own right. Spanning many professional domains, there is a striking variety of issues and topics surveyed: anthropology, biology, economics, education, philosophy, psychology, psychiatry, sociology, social work, and more. By bringing together work on diverse topics, the editors have fostered a mutually-beneficial exchange not only between alternative approaches and perspectives, but also between “applied” and “pure” research interests. The Theory volume presents current and ongoing theoretical advances focusing on new developments or substantive refinements and revisions to existing theoretical frameworks. The Research volume summarizes and interprets the findings of specific, theory-driven, research programs; reviews research in areas that have generated substantial empirical findings; describes recent developments in research methodology/techniques; and reports research on new and emerging issues. The Application volume describes a diverse array of intervention projects — educational, clinical, organizational, and the like. Each chapter includes a summary report of results and findings, conceptual developments, and emerging issues or topics. Since the contributors to this publication are active theorists, researchers, and practitioners, it may serve to define directions that will shape the emerging literature in the field.

It provides a theoretical framework to reconsider what a "functional view" of scientific literacy entails, by examining how nature of science issues, classroom discourse issues, cultural issues, and science-technology-society-environment case-based issues contribute to habits of mind about socioscientific content. The text covers philosophical, psychological and pedagogical considerations underpinning moral reasoning, as well as the status of socioscientific issues in science education.

Book The Science of Lay Theories

Download or read book The Science of Lay Theories written by Claire M. Zedelius and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-07-14 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This timely and important collection broadens our understanding of the ways in which lay theories (also known as folk psychologies, implicit theories, naïve theories, or mindsets) impact our lives and social relations. Moving well beyond lay theories as applied to intelligence and achievement, this volume considers lay theories in an admirably wide context, including perspectives on prejudice, creativity, self-regulation, health, free will, justice, magic, religion and more. Eminent and emerging scholars alike provide a comprehensive overview that presents and synthesizes cutting edge contemporary research on lay theories, spanning social, cognitive, developmental, cultural, and clinical psychology. Structurally, this volume is organized in three parts. Beginning with a preface by renowned scholar Carol Dweck, the first part looks at the origins and nature of lay theories, and how malleable they are. The second part explores lay theories about common psychological phenomena. The third section discusses lay theories about the metaphysical or supernatural. Finally, the last section explores the important question of how lay theories impact health and health behavior. Taken together, the chapters provide an integrative survey of the science of lay theories, bringing together many perspectives that previously have been studied largely in isolation. This volume is more than the sum of its parts—perspectives from different strands of research provide insights that cut across research disciplines, making novel connections and prompting new directions for this field of study. Shedding light on how our beliefs shape all facets of our lives, The Science of Lay Theories: How Beliefs Shape Our Cognition, Behavior, and Health will appeal to researchers and practitioners in psychology, as well as philosophers, cognitive and developmental neuroscientists, religious scholars, sociologists, and anthropologists. It is very rare to say of an edited volume of scholarly chapters “I couldn’t put it down!” Yet that was the case with this book. It’s not just that I have worked in this field for many years, but rather, with every chapter I felt I was gaining new insights into what, deep down, people really believe and how these beliefs influence their lives—Carol Dweck, Stanford University, Palo Alto, CA, USA

Book Ethics and Values in Psychotherapy

Download or read book Ethics and Values in Psychotherapy written by Alan Tjeltveit and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2003-09-02 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ethics and Values in Psychotherapy is an examination of the role of the therapist as ethicist and the ways in which the ethical convictions of both therapist and client contribute to the practical process of psychotherapy. As Psychotherapy strives to establish itself as a 'Profession', practitioners are increasinly focusing on the issue of ethics as they attempt to agree on guidelines and standards for professional practice. Alan Tjeltveit argues that any discussion of professional and ethical practice in psychotherapy is inadequate if carried out in ignorance of or in isolation from traditional ethical theories. He applies this approach to issues such as: * the role of therapy in society * the goals and outcomes of psychotherapy * techniques and practices * the existence and operation of values * the intellectual and social context in which therapy takes place. In the second part of the book, he uses clinical examples and case studies to relate this theoretical discussion to clinical practice. Ethics and Values in Psychotherapy will be welcomed by the growing number of experienced Psychotherapists and post-graduate students who are interested in the increasingly contentious issue of professional ethics.
