2021
1.362 / 5.000 Resultados de traducción Analizar si el contenido de tres mensajes morales (deontológico, utilitarismo ético, virtud ética) y un mensaje de control afectan diferencialmente la probabilidad de realizar cuatro comportamientos: lavarse las manos, participar en reuniones públicas, quedarse en casa/evitar el contacto social y reenviar el mensaje para informar a más personas. En nuestro estudio, el emisor del mensaje es un profesor universitario. Estas variables se miden en términos de sus intenciones de comportamiento y las intenciones de comportamiento de los demás (creencias sobre el comportamiento de los demás). Ensayo controlado aleatorizado. Nuestro estudio incluye el análisis…
¿Prudencia o Sabiduría? Sinonimia e interacción visual
2020
Tanto la Sabiduría como la Prudencia han sido tratadas como términos sinónimos desde la Antigüedad. Ambos conceptos se personificaban mediante la diosa Atenea/Minerva. Estas correspondencias han dado lugar a un intercambio de papeles, siendo considerada la Sabiduría como una de las Virtudes Cardinales. Asimismo, en las alegorías de la Prudencia y la Sabiduría encontramos atributos idénticos que responden al mismo significado y función, concretamente: el aspecto armado, el libro, la lechuza, la criba o cedazo y la presencia de algún objeto lumínico.
QUASI QUIDAM ORNATUS VITAE. Il decorum nel de officiis di Cicerone
2013
The theory of decorum in Cicero’s de officiis (44 BC) seems to suggest to the Romans not simply the fourth virtue of a general system of conduct, but a super-virtue able to act as a “shock absorber” in the exercise of social and political life, summarized in a principle that Cicero defines as verecundiae partes, that is non offendere homines. Thus, while Romans citizens suffer the most radical crisis of their history, he indicates the decorum as the backbone of the complex architecture that constitutes the common good. In this paper I argue that Cicero’s contribution to the political and theoretical discussion on justice and respect may bring a very helpful tool for rethinking critically th…
Los fundamentos de la visualidad de la Templanza. Formación de su tipología iconográfica hasta el siglo XIV
2020
La Templanza, como una de las Virtudes Cardinales, ha sido objeto de reflexión por parte de los pensadores desde la Antigüedad, cuando se sentaron las bases de este concepto. A pesar de la ausencia de unos claros precedentes visuales, la Templanza configuró su visualidad en el medievo al igual que sus compañeras. Dicha ausencia motivó una gran variedad de concreciones icónicas de esta virtud mediante diferentes y numerosos atributos. Las famosas “iconologías” no recogen la mayoría de estos atributos y tipos iconográficos, al igual que la bibliografía. Por este motivo, proponemos un estudio diacrónico de la visualidad de la Templanza desde sus orígenes hasta el siglo XIV, atendiendo al signi…
Organizational Ethical Virtues of Innovativeness
2017
This study participates in the discussion of the ethical culture of organizations by deepening the knowledge and understanding of the meaning of organizational ethical virtues in organizational innovativeness. The aim in this study was to explore how an organization’s ethical culture and, more specifically, organization’s ethical virtues support organizational innovativeness. The ethical culture of an organization is defined as the virtuousness of an organization. Organizational innovativeness is conceptualized as an organization’s behavioral propensity to produce innovative products and services. The empirical data consisted of a total of 39 interviews from specialist organizations. Qualit…
Why Do Managers Leave Their Organization? : Investigating the Role of Ethical Organizational Culture in Managerial Turnover
2016
The aim of the present longitudinal study was to quantitatively examine whether an ethical organizational culture predicts turnover among managers. To complement the quantitative results, a further important aim was to examine the self-reported reasons behind manager turnover, and the associations of ethical organizational culture with these reasons. The participants were Finnish managers working in technical and commercial fields. Logistic regression analyses indicated that, of the eight virtues investigated, congruency of supervisors, congruency of senior management, discussability, and sanctionability were negatively related to manager turnover. The results also revealed that the turnove…
(A)moral Agents in Organisations? The Significance of Ethical Organisation Culture for Middle Managers’ Exercise of Moral Agency in Ethical Problems
2017
This paper investigates qualitatively the significance of different dimensions of ethical organisation culture for the exercise of middle managers’ moral agency in ethical problems. The research draws on the social cognitive theory of morality and on the corporate ethical virtues model. This study broadens understanding of the factors which enable or constrain managers’ potential for moral agency in organisations, and shows that an insufficient ethical organisational culture may contribute to indifference towards ethical issues, the experiencing of moral conflicts, lack of self-efficacy and morally disengaged reasoning. In contrast, a healthy ethical culture can contribute to motivation to …
The Relationship Between Ethical Organisational Culture and Organisational Innovativeness : Comparison of Findings from Finland and Lithuania
2016
The paper explores the interrelations between ethical organisational culture and organisational innovativeness in two different socio-cultural contexts, Finland and Lithuania. According to the Global Innovation Index 2013, Finland ranked 6th and Lithuania 40th in terms of the national capacity to produce innovations. Prior research by Riivari and Lamsa (J Business Ethics 124:1–17, 2014) and Riivari et al. (Eur J Innov Manag 15:310–331, 2012) argues the importance of the ethical dimension of organisational culture in fostering the organisational capacity to innovate. In this paper, a different context is taken to test hypothesised differences between the two multidimensional phenomena. The p…
Pedagogia dell'amicizia adolescenziale. Verità e metodologia educativa
2009
Fin dall’età adolescenziale l’amicizia autentica si cela dietro il ventaglio di virtù del cuore e dell’intelligenza del vero amico. Per questo, essa è «immagine esteriore di una realtà interiore»: della coscienza, in cui si costituisce e si mantiene, sulla scorta dei significati delle emozioni, degli affetti e dei sentimenti condivisi, come «distinta essenza etica». L’intenzionalità educativa ha la capacità di orientare le azioni dell’educatore in direzione dell’“amicalità”, che egli deve forgiare nell’educando innanzitutto con il suo esempio di una vita amicale vera e, al contempo, con l’educazione delle sei virtù che costituiscono l’essere amicale autentico. Solo così forse possono nascer…
Organisaatiokulttuurin eettisyys suomalaisten johtajien silmin : työhyvinvoinnin näkökulma
2010
Tutkimuksessa selvitettiin suomalaisten johtajien arvioita organisaationsa kulttuurin eettisyydestä. Eettistä organisaatiokulttuuria arvioitiin kahdeksalla kuvaajalla (selkeys, esimiehen esimerkki, johdon esimerkki, toteutettavuus, organisaation tuki, läpinäkyvyys, keskusteltavuus, toiminnan seuraukset) sekä näiden summana. Lisäksi tutkittiin eettisen organisaatiokulttuurin yhteyttä johtajien työhyvinvointiin (työuupumus, työn imu). Ilmiöitä tarkastellessa huomioitiin johtajien erot taustatekijöissä (sukupuoli, ikä, johtotaso, toimiala, yrityksen koko). Tutkimus perustuu syksyllä 2009 toteutettuun kyselytutkimukseen, johon osallistui 902 johtajaa eri puolilta Suomea. Vastaajista yli kaksi k…
