Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

David has directly witnessed a colleague misrepresenting data, which goes against ethical norms. Rebecca has noticed a common behavior, but may not necessarily interpret it as unethical. Jason's managers agreeing to plagiarism suggests a lack of ethical standards in the organization, but Jason himself may not see it as unethical. Sarah's organization not providing guidelines on ethical behavior may indicate a lack of awareness, but it does not necessarily mean that Sarah herself recognizes actions as unethical.
