Abstract

Ethical decision related to computer technology and computer use are made based upon one's personal code of ethics, the informal code that exists in the work place, and formal company codes. These codes as well as factors influencing these codes were explored in terms of a decision-making model. Practical implications of the model are important for educators, organizations, and personnel using computers and computer technology.
