FN ISI Export Format VR 1.0 PT J TI When Organizational Identification Elicits Moral Decision-Making: A Matter of the Right Climate AF van Gils, Suzanne Hogg, Michael A. Van Quaquebeke, Niels van Knippenberg, Daan AU van Gils, S Hogg, MA Van Quaquebeke, N van Knippenberg, D SO Journal of Business Ethics VL 142 BP 155 EP 168 PY 2017 DE Ethical climate;Moral decision-making;Moral identity;Organizational identification AB To advance current knowledge on ethical decision-making in organizations, we integrate two perspectives that have thus far developed independently: the organizational identification perspective and the ethical climate perspective. We illustrate the interaction between these perspectives in two studies (Study 1, N = 144, US sample; and Study 2, N = 356, UK sample), in which we presented participants with moral business dilemmas. Specifically, we found that organizational identification increased moral decision-making only when the organization’s climate was perceived to be ethical. In addition, we disentangle this effect in Study 2 from participants’ moral identity. We argue that the interactive influence of organizational identification and ethical climate, rather than the independent influence of either of these perspectives, is crucial for understanding moral decision-making in organizations.
