    Why Do College Students Cheat?Mark G. Simkin & Alexander McLeod - 2010 - Journal of Business Ethics 94 (3):441 - 453.
    More is known about the pervasiveness of college cheating than reasons why students cheat. This article reports the results of a study that applied the theory of reasoned action and partial least squares methodology to analyze the responses of 144 students to a survey on cheating behavior. Approximately 60% of the business students and 64% of the non-business students admitted to such behavior. Among cheaters, a "desire to get ahead" was the most important motivating factor - a surprising result given (...)

    The Centrality of Events, Religion, Spirituality, and Subjective Well-Being in Latin American Jewish Immigrants in Israel.Hugo Simkin - 2020 - Frontiers in Psychology 11.

    The intersection of food justice and religious values in secular spaces: insights from a nonprofit urban farm in Columbus, Ohio.Kelsey Ryan-Simkins - 2021 - Agriculture and Human Values 38 (3):767-781.
    Critical food scholars have argued that activists’ political ideologies and environmental values are important influences on their food justice projects. However, this body of work has given little attention to religion and spirituality even though religious studies scholars maintain that religious values affect environmental and social action. Bringing together these perspectives considers the way religious values and meaning making intersect with actions toward food justice outside of traditionally religious spaces. This paper draws on qualitative research, including a dozen interviews and (...)

    The Ethics of Predatory Journals.Alexander McLeod, Arline Savage & Mark G. Simkin - 2018 - Journal of Business Ethics 153 (1):121-131.
    Predatory journals operate as vanity presses, typically charging large submission or publication fees and requiring little peer review. The consequences of such journals are wide reaching, affecting the integrity of the legitimate journals they attempt to imitate, the reputations of the departments, colleges, and universities of their contributors, the actions of accreditation bodies, the reputations of their authors, and perhaps even the generosity of academic benefactors. Using a stakeholder analysis, our study of predatory journals suggests that most stakeholders gain little (...)

    Conditions of Participation: Incorporating the History of Hospital Desegregation.Sallie Thieme Sanford - 2023 - Journal of Law, Medicine and Ethics 51 (4):979-983.
    Our students ought to know about the history of formal hospital segregation and desegregation.

Montague Cobb, M.D., Ph.D. Third, to highlight how the implementation of that program for the elderly led, in a matter of months, to the desegregation of (...)
