What the paper says

Ethical decision-making and the participation of young people in politics and business are called for. As future leaders, business students are key to tackle global challenges. Some researchers have inquired about how ethics and engagement in communities relate in samples of young people. However, little is known about how ethics positions and civic engagement specifically act in students of business. In this study, we analyzed data of 614 Colombian management students. Using structural equation modeling, we explore how ethics positions and civic engagement relate among undergraduates in business and note support for previous research findings. Our results suggest that, if they are willing to positively impact their communities, business schools should continue to invest in ethics courses, irrespective of the ethics positions of students.
