Two questionnaire studies try to answer the question if different social roles
lead to difef rent decisions and justifications concerning ethical problems. In study
I participants were asked to decide on an economic problem (Should the
production of a mobile company be transferred abroad?) while going into a
related social role, in study II role expectations were asked for. The decision had
to be justified by weighing the importance of four classical ethical positions:
hedonism, intuitionism, utilitarianism, and deontology. The results show that
decisions and their justifications are dependent on social roles. The effect, which
is interpreted as stemming from social standardization, is greater for rolebehavior.
The difef rences between role-behavior and role-expectation indicate a
misunderstanding crucial for group decisions.
