✦ Synopsis

In the present study, a model of antecedents and outcomes of ethical behavior in work organizations was developed and tested. Antecedents included are corporate ethical values, organizational justice, and organizational commitment. The outcome of organizational citizenship behaviors was also examined. Data were gathered from 489 members of a regional chapter of the National Association of Purchasing Managers (NAPM). Structural equation modeling was used to test the model. Results indicated the data fit the model well. Implications for managers and directions for future research are discussed.
