Behavioral ethics is a research area that explores how individuals make ethical decisions and behave in ethical or unethical ways. It examines the psychological and social factors that influence people's ethical behavior, such as moral intuition, cognitive biases, situational factors, and social norms. Researchers in this field use a combination of empirical methods, including experiments and surveys, to study how people navigate ethical dilemmas and make moral judgments. The goal of behavioral ethics research is to better understand the underlying mechanisms of ethical decision-making and to develop strategies for promoting ethical behavior in individuals and organizations.
