As artificial intelligence (AI) continues to be widely integrated into global economic, social, and environmental governance, its role in promoting sustainable entrepreneurship has garnered increasing scholarly attention. This research aims to uncover the predictors affecting students' pro-environmental personal norms (EPNs) and subjective norms…

Several studies have investigated factors guiding children's decisions when learning from others, although less is known about factors that govern children's decisions when they transfer knowledge to others. Here we asked whether children would privilege ingroup members when teaching and, if so, whether this tendency would persist when…

Environmental issues caused by human activities are posing a threat to the health and well-being of all humanity. Environmental education is a key component of global efforts to address and mitigate environmental change. Adolescents, who will be the future citizens combating climate change, are the primary group receiving this education. Building…

Relational bullying is a prevalent issue in higher education, and students who witness bullying incidents react in prosocial or antisocial ways depending on a complex range of factors. To encourage prosocial and discourage antisocial bystander behaviours in students, it is crucial to understand which factors contribute to aggressively defending…

The current study examined whether bystander behaviours in class were associated with being perpetrators of ethnic victimization and whether they moderated the association between disengagement from morality and perpetrating ethnic-based victimization. The sample included 1065 adolescents residing in Sweden (M[subscript age] = 13.12, SD=.42; 55%…

This paper addresses three basic questions about moral motivation. Concerning the nature of moral motivation, it argues that it involves responsiveness to both reasons of morality and the value of persons and everything else of value. Moral motivation is thus identified as reason-responsive appropriate valuing. Regarding whether it is possible for…

This article draws on moral theory to explore how 415 adolescents made decisions when confronted with cyberbullying events and further examines whether adolescents with different individual factors (i.e., gender and educational level) have differences in moral philosophy and cyberbullying intention. A scenario-type questionnaire including three…

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to provide a comprehensive conceptual internal whistleblowing model for accounting students and then test it empirically. To this end, by considering the mediating role of professional commitment (PC) and the moderating effect of the perceived moral intensity (PMI), the anticipatory socialization's impact on…

In his 2006 essay, "Moral Education's Modest Agenda," Robin Barrow argues for a clearly bounded conception of morality; he presents the moral domain as concerned with moral principles, and moral education as the cultivation of moral understanding. Barrow rejects behaviourism, character education, values clarification, developmentalism,…

This study explores the factors affecting cyberbullying behaviour through their attitudes and intentions based on a model developed using Social Cognitive Theory and the Theory of Planned Behaviour. Results from a survey of 428 Malaysian tertiary students were analysed using a two-step Structural Equation Modeling (SEM)--Artificial Neural Networks…

Adults commonly conceptualize intentional harms as worse than accidental harms. We probed the developmental trajectory of this pattern and asked whether U.S. children (4 - to 7-year-olds) and adults expected other agents -- including another person and God -- to share their views. In contrast with some prior work, even the youngest children in the…

Fundraising from and engaging with alumni, once synonymous with American higher education, has gained momentum worldwide. However, we know little about how potential donors receive this practice. This article investigates how Chinese students--or future alumni--think about their responsibility to support their alma mater. We analyzed a survey of…

Peer reporting, defined as a lateral control effort by reporting witnessed academic dishonesty, is one method used to foster academic integrity. However, most students refrain from reporting. This study portrays the process of peer reporting intention based on an ethical decision-making perspective in two types of academic dishonesty (exam…

This paper considers characteristic views advanced in the past fifteen years that may be considered relatively sympathetic to student practices of cheating on graded assignments or exams. We detect and analyze typical fallacies that are recurrent in articles that promote a revisionist view of cheating as morally permissible. We offer a general,…

Background: Online exams have become a more common form of assessment at universities due to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, cheating behaviour in online exams is widespread and threatens exam validity as well as student learning and well-being. Objective: To better understand the role of university students' needs, conceptions and reasons…
