ÇEVRECİLİK VE İŞLETMELERDE AHLAKÎ KARAR ALMA

Bu çalışma, planlanmış davranış kuramı bağlamında, çevresel konularla ilgili ahlaki iş kararları verme sürecinin dinamiklerini ortaya çıkarmaya çalışmaktadır. Bunun için İİBF bölümlerinde okuyan 167 üniversite öğrencisi ile anket yöntemiyle saha araştırması yapılmış ve elde edilen veriler istatistik paket programı vasıtasıyla istatistiki analize tabi tutulmuştur. Sonuçlar, ahlakî davranış niyetlerinin çevrecilik, çevreye yönelik ahlaki tutumlar ve algılanan davranışsal kontrol ile anlamlı pozitif ilişkilere sahip olduğunu göstermiştir. Demografik faktör gruplarının hiçbir değişkende anlamlı farklılık göstermediği görülmüştür.
