| Abstract: | The initial purpose of this study is to provide an empirical validation of Victor and Cullens ethical-climate model (1987; 1988; 1990). Testing the model on a sample of Danish firms, this research demonstrates that the empirical model as suggested by Victor and Cullen is much stronger than suggested by previous research. Based on a confirmatory factor model, the results of this study suggest a revised ethical structure. Especially a sixth dimension own interest is separated from the original instrumental dimension. Further, this study suggests that the ethical-climate model can be enhanced with the dimension of autonomy deriving from Koys and DeCotiis (1991) dimensional psychological climate instrument. |
