团队伦理决策的过程机制及影响因素：一项中国情境下的研究

Although most business ethical decisions are done by teams rather than individuals, only a few studies have been done on team ethical decision making, which remain on comparing the results of individual ethical decision-making and those of team ethical decision-making directly without basing on any solid theories. Basing on literature of individual ethical decision-making, group decision-making, and Chinese cultural characteristics (reflection, zhongyong, authoritarian leadership et al.), we will apply interviews, observations, cases, questionnaires, and experiments to study the process of team ethical decision-making and its antecedents. Specifically, four sub-studies of two aspects will be done. On the aspect of process model, this project will try to establish and valid a process model of team ethical decision-making; and focusing on one essential difference between team ethical decision-making and individual ethical decision-making, we will study one sub-process, opinion integrating, of the team ethical decision-making based on social decision scheme theory and Chinese cultural. On the aspect of antecedents, this project will focus on the characters of members and leaders. To be specific, on the one hand, basing on the information processing and group conflict, we will study the mechanism of how team diversity influences team ethical decision-making; on the other hand, basing on the information sampling model, we will study the mechanism of how leadership affects team ethical decision-making. Finally, we will give Chinese organizations some advice to enhance their team ethical decision-making.

尽管绝大多数商业伦理决策都是由团队而非个人所做出的，但目前对团队伦理决策的研究还很少，尤其缺乏基于理论的深入研究。本项目将在前人研究的基础上，借鉴个体伦理决策和团队决策方面的研究成果，结合中国文化强调反省、中庸、威权领导等特点，对团队伦理决策的过程机制及影响因素的作用模式展开理论驱动的深入研究。具体来讲，将综合利用多种方法来进行两个方面的四项子研究。在团队伦理决策的过程机制方面，拟开展团队伦理决策的过程机制模型构建研究，然后聚焦于团队伦理决策和个体伦理决策的核心区别，展开基于社会决策图式理论的团队伦理决策观点整合机制研究；在团队伦理决策的影响因素作用模式方面，拟从成员和领导两个方面来进行：基于信息加工和团队冲突的成员多样性对团队伦理决策的影响机制研究；基于信息取样模型的领导特征对团队伦理决策的影响机制研究。最后，根据本项目的研究成果提出关于如何提升中国企业团队伦理决策的建议和意见。
