About this book deutschenglish

A Pioneering Study on the Moral Judgment Capabilities of Economics Students

The book offers an in-depth analysis of the moral judgment capabilities of students in economics programs. Despite the inclusion of ethical content in the curriculum, the empirical research reveals significant deficits in students' ability to make morally reflective decisions.

The author has developed an innovative competence model that captures various levels of moral judgment ability and precisely categorizes their manifestations. Through the detailed examination of the cognitive, affective, and conative aspects of moral judgment, the work provides valuable insights and practical recommendations for improving ethics education in economics.

The study's findings emphasize the importance of ethical foundational knowledge, reflective skills, and impact assessment in the training of future decision-makers and reveal the urgent need for targeted education to strengthen moral judgment competence.

The book is both a theoretical and practical enrichment, providing practical approaches for integrating ethical considerations into economic decision-making processes. It is an indispensable resource for educational institutions seeking to enhance their economics programs and for anyone interested in strengthening their moral judgment capabilities.
