Introduction Decision making can be regarded as the mental

processes resulting in the selection of a course of action among several alternatives. Every decision making process produces a final choice. The output can be an action or an opinion of choice.

Ethical decision making is a cognitive process that considers various ethical principles, rules, and virtues or the maintenance of relationships to guide or judge individual or group decisions or int ended actions.

Definition Ethical decision making helps people make

difficult choices when faced with an ethical dilemma, a situation in which there is no clear right or wrong answer.

Ethical decision making

Ethical decision making typically examines three perspectives:

1.the ethic of obedience. 2. the ethic of care. 3.the ethic of reason.

1. The ethic of obedience looks not only at the letter of the law, but also the spirit or moral values behind it

2. The ethic of care engages our emotional intelligence and empathy in making a decision from other people’s perspectives

3. How would I feel in their shoes?". Finally, the ethic of reason engages our rational brain

Value

A value is defined as that which individuals, groups and communities view as important in life. Values are part of each person’s belief system.

They develop from rules learnt as we grow up, and become internal messages about how we should behave and what we believe in.

6

Attitude

An attitude is defined as a belief and describes what we think is the proper way of doing or thinking about something. Attitudes vary in intensity.

When we feel strongly about something they are called values. Attitudes that are less important to us are called opinions.

1. Identify the Ethical Problem

The decision maker must be able to determine if there is a possible violation of an important ethical principle, societal law, or organizational standard or policy.

if there are potential consequences that

should be sought or avoided that emanate from an action being considered to resolve the problem.

02 Collect Relevant Information

The decision maker should seek to gather as much information as possible about which rights are being forsaken and to what degree.

A consequential focus would prompt the decision maker to attempt to measure the type, degree, and amount of harm being inflicted or that will be inflicted on others.

10

03 Evaluate the Information

Once the information has been collected, the decision maker must apply some type of standard or assessment criterion to evaluate the situation.

The decision maker might use one of the predominant ethics theories—utilitarianism, rights, or justice.

11

04 Consider Alternatives

The decision maker needs to generate a set ofpossible action alternatives, such as:•

confronting another person’s actions, seeking a higher authority, or stepping in and changing the direction of what is

happening.

12

05 Make a Decision

The decision maker should seek the action alternative that is supported by the evaluation criteria used in Step 3.

A decision maker selects a course of action that is supported by all the ethics theories or other evaluation criteria used in the decision- making process.

13

06 Act or Implement

The decision maker, if truly seeking to resolve the problem being considered, must take action.

Once the action alternatives have been identified in Step 4 and the optimal response is selected in Step 5, the action is taken in Step 6.

14

07 Review the Action

• Once the action has been taken and the results are known, the decision maker should review the consequences of the action.

• If the optimal resolution to the problem is not achieved, the decision maker may need to modify the actions being taken or return to the beginning of the decision-making process
