Abstract

Abstract This article explores Brazilian workers’ ethics position and compares it to those of other nations. We surveyed 410 Brazilian workers and used the Ethics Position Questionnaire (EPQ), with idealism and relativism scales. We translated, back-translated, and adapted the scales according to Sperber and conducted exploratory factor analyses together with confirmatory factor analyses to validate them. The results show that Brazilians present, on average, high idealism and low relativism. Therefore, Brazil appears to be a well-defined “absolutist” country compared to other nations, a surprising outcome, since Brazil ranks as one of the most corrupt countries on international scales.
巴西工人的伦理地位:一个国际比较的观点
摘要本文探讨了巴西工人的道德地位,并与其他国家的工人道德地位进行了比较。我们调查了410名巴西工人,并使用道德立场问卷(EPQ),具有理想主义和相对主义量表。我们根据Sperber对量表进行了翻译、反翻译和改编,并进行了探索性因素分析和验证性因素分析来验证量表。结果显示,平均而言,巴西人的理想主义程度较高,相对主义程度较低。因此,与其他国家相比,巴西似乎是一个明确的“专制主义”国家,这是一个令人惊讶的结果,因为巴西在国际范围内被列为最腐败的国家之一。
