Do Education-Related Attitudes and Values Contribute to Behavioral Ethics? A Preliminary Empirical Study of Students from Croatia and B&H

In this paper, a survey of Croatian and B&H students is used to establish the potential contribution of education-related attitudes and values to behavioral business ethics. Our empirical strategy is based on the assessment of sociologically relevant and empirically validated attitudes toward (higher) education (including the students’ acceptance of the officially proclaimed educational values) and the statistical analysis of their potential association with the development of students’ behavioral ethics. The interplay between education-related values and behavioral ethics will be compared across two countries from South East Europe, as well as across different fields of higher education (business and economics, science, social science and humanities). Multiple control variables are also included into the study. Educational and social implications are discussed in the context of the “new authoritarianism” social tendencies, with a focus to the repercussions and venues for future research in the South- East European (SEE) region.
