  • 1.  Request for readings on Ethical Ideology

    Posted 06-16-2011 05:46
    Dear Colleagues,
                             I am working on ethical ideology and its two dimensions "Relativism " and " Idealism" by (Forsyth, 1992). Please suggest me some more basic readings if any one knows about this construct and specially about the antecedents of these dimensions. I shall be highly obliged.
     
     
    Kind regards

    Hi Farooq,

    The original Forsyth (1980) piece provides some correlates that may be of interest. Also please forgive the self promotion, but the meta-analysis (specifically the reference list) may be worth checking out as well.


    Forsyth, D. R. (1980). A taxonomy of ethical ideologies. Journal of personality and social psychology, 39, 175-184.


    Forsyth, D. R., O'Boyle Jr., E. H., & McDaniel, M. A. (2008). East meets West: A meta-analytic investigation of cultural variations in idealism and relativism. Journal of Business Ethics, 83, 813-833. 


    Regards,

    Ernest
