“…The study also indicated that purchasing professionals at a higher management level exhibited higher DIT scores than those at a lower management level. Lin (2009b) found that moral development of purchasing professionals was significantly positively related to their multicultural experiences. Lin and Ho (2009) used the DIT to compare the development of ethical judgment of purchasing professionals in Taiwan and China, and found that purchasing professionals in these two areas focused more on the conventional level than on the post-conventional level of ethical judgment.…”

“…Up to date, considerable attention has been paid to the ethics of purchasing professionals (e.g., Badenhorst, 1994;Carter & Jennings, 2004;Forker & Janson, 1990;Gonzalez-Padron, Hult & Calantone, 2008;Handfield & Baumer, 2006;Salam, 2009). However, only a few studies was made to study ethical decision-making of purchasing professionals (Ford et al, 2000;Landeros & Plank, 1996;Lin, 2009aLin, , 2009bLin & Ho, 2009;Motwani et al, 1998;Plank et al, 1994;Razzaque & Hwee, 2002;Robertson & Rymon, 2001;Tadepalli et al, 1999;Turner et al, 1994Turner et al, , 1995.…”

“…In summary, previous studies on purchasing professionals' ethical decision-making analyzed only one part of the ethical decision-making process. Some focused on ethical sensitivity and awareness (Motwani et al, 1998;Razzaque & Hwee, 2002;Tadepalli et al, 1999); some on ethical judgment (Ford et al, 2000;Lin, 2009aLin, , 2009bLin & Ho, 2009;Plank et al, 1994); and some on ethical intention (Landeros & Plank, 1996;Robertson & Rymon, 2001;Turner et al, 1994Turner et al, , 1995. None of them analyzed two or more parts of ethical decision-making process simultaneously.…”

“…Students with international experience are found to develop the intrinsic appreciation of other cultural groups, which will better benefit their adaption to multicultural campus environment (Lee & Davis III, 2000). Also, individuals who possess international experiences, such as working or doing business with foreigners and studying abroad, are more likely to cope with international business conflicts (Leonidou, Katsikeas & Hadjimarcou, 2002;Lin, 2009).…”

“…While research in business ethics has received considerably attention, the investigation of the relationship between international experiences and ethical perceptions is hardly found in previous studies. Up to the present, only a few researchers (Endicott et al, 2003;Lin, 2009) investigated the relationship between moral judgment and intercultural experiences. Their research suggests significant relations between international experiences and moral development.…”

International experiences have gained increasing attentions by business professionals in the era of business globalization. Business ethics has also received substantial attentions due to those unceasing business scandals and their significant impact on stakeholders. As a result, research on business ethics and international experiences has no doubt brought about a growing attention lately. Nevertheless, little empirical research investigated the association between international experiences and ethical perceptions. Therefore, this study intends to explore the relationships between international experiences and ethical perceptions of business students. A questionnaire survey which takes business students in Taiwan as research subjects was used to probe participantsâ€™ ethical perceptions and their international experiences. The Multidimensional Ethics Scales is employed to measure studentsâ€™ ethical perceptions, and an international experience questionnaire was developed to determine studentsâ€™ international experiences. The findings reveal significant relationships exist between international experiences and ethical perceptions of business students. The study can promote further understanding of the associations of international experiences and ethical perceptions of future business professionals. Furthermore, the results of the study can help higher education institutions and international businesses to realize the possible impact of international experiences on ethical perceptions for business students.

We review empirical research on (social) psychology of morality to identify which issues and relations are well documented by existing data and which areas of inquiry are in need of further empirical evidence. An electronic literature search yielded a total of 1,278 relevant research articles published from 1940 through 2017. These were subjected to expert content analysis and standardized bibliometric analysis to classify research questions and relate these to (trends in) empirical approaches that characterize research on morality. We categorize the research questions addressed in this literature into five different themes and consider how empirical approaches within each of these themes have addressed psychological antecedents and implications of moral behavior. We conclude that some key features of theoretical questions relating to human morality are not systematically captured in empirical research and are in need of further investigation.
