Abstract

Ethics research developed partly in response to calls from organizations to understand and solve unethical behavior. We examine two approaches to mitigating unethical behavior: (1) values-oriented approaches that broadly appeal to individuals’ preferences to be more moral, and (2) structure-oriented approaches that redesign specific incentives, tasks, and decisions to reduce temptations to cheat in the environment. This paper explores how these approaches can change behavior. We argue that integrating both approaches while avoiding incompatible strategies can reduce the risk of adverse effects that arise from taking a single approach and leverage the strengths of both approaches.

道德重新启动:探索简单的修复我们的道德缺陷
伦理研究的发展部分是为了响应组织对理解和解决不道德行为的呼吁。我们研究了两种减轻不道德行为的方法:(1)以价值观为导向的方法,这种方法广泛地呼吁个人更道德的偏好;(2)以结构为导向的方法,这种方法重新设计了特定的激励、任务和决策,以减少环境中欺骗的诱惑。本文探讨了这些方法如何改变行为。我们认为,整合两种方法,同时避免不相容的策略,可以减少因采取单一方法而产生的不利影响的风险,并利用两种方法的优势。

期刊介绍: Research in Organizational Behavior publishes commissioned papers only, spanning several levels of analysis, and ranging from studies of individuals to groups to organizations and their environments. The topics encompassed are likewise diverse, covering issues from individual emotion and cognition to social movements and networks. Cutting across this diversity, however, is a rather consistent quality of presentation. Being both thorough and thoughtful, Research in Organizational Behavior is commissioned pieces provide substantial contributions to research on organizations. Many have received rewards for their level of scholarship and many have become classics in the field of organizational research.
