A MULTIDIMENSIONAL ANALYSIS OF TOURISM STUDENTS’ ETHICS AWARENESS, INTENTION AND ORIENTATION

Abstract

ABSTRACT

Ethical perception, intention and orientation of tourism students have become an increasing concern in the literature. This study aims to measure ethical perception of tourism students at different education levels in tourism faculties and vocational schools in Turkey by utilizing the Multidimensional Ethics Scale (MES). Selected doctoral, master’s, bachelor’s, vocational school level tourism students were examined to compare the ethical awareness among them. In total, 177 responses were achieved. The findings showed that the participants perceived a higher level of ethics awareness in environmental scenario than social and economic scenarios. The ethical decision mean scores according to approaches were higher for justice and relativism theories compared to deontology (ethics codes, duties, principles). Tourism students’ ethics approach intention was not influenced whether they took ethics courses before or not. The findings supported that, female students were more sensitive to ethical issues than male students from ethical orientation perspective. Contrary, there were no significant differences between males and females in terms of  the ethical intention.
