Chan et al., 1998; Lu and Lu, 2009) In Vietnam, around 81% of software used is pirated comparing to average 62% in Asia (Global Study, 2014) The general purpose of the present study was to contribute to the existing knowledge by getting a more thorough understanding of the why of consumer ethics, allowing marketers to predict unethical consumer behavior, and ultimately prevent consumers from taking advantage of the seller Particularly, this study investigates the possible effects of selfmonitoring, Machiavellism, and oppotunism on all dimensions of consumers’ ethical attitudes The sample is drawn from 340 Vietnamese has results in many significant findings For the dimension of ‘actively benefiting from illegal actions (ABIA)’, the result indicates positive relationship with self-monitoring and oppotunism but no relationship with Machiavellism As for ‘actively benefiting from questionable but legal actions (ABQA)’, the outcome shows a positive relationship with oppotunism and Machiavellism but no relationship with self-monitoring Same resuls found for ‘passively benefiting at the expense of the seller (PBEO)’, and ‘no harm, no foul actions (NHNF)’ In this study, literature on consumer ethics, self-monitoring, Machiavellism, and oppotunism as well as the introduction of Vietnam, are presented along with implications and recommendations for academic scholars, practitioners and the like TABLE OF CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS ii ABSTRACT iii LIST OF FIGURES vi LIST OF TABLES vii CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 1.1 Research background 1.2 Research gap 1.3 Research objectives 1.4 Research scope 1.5 Research contributions 1.6 Research structure CHAPTER 2: LITERATURE REVIEW AND HYPOTHESIS DEVELOPMENTS 2.1 Theoretical background 2.2 Hypotheses development 16 2.3 Summary 17 CHAPTER 3: RESEARCH METHODOLOGY 18 3.1 Research Process 18 3.2 Measurement scales 18 3.3 Qualitative Research 22 3.4 Sampling method 24 3.5 Data analysis methods 24 3.6 Summary 26 CHAPTER 4: DATA ANALYSIS AND RESULTS 27 4.1 Respondents’ demographic 27 4.2 Reliability Analysis 28 4.3 Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) 31 4.4 Multiple Regression Analysis 35 4.5 Discussion of findings 43 4.6 Summary 44 CHAPTER 5: CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS 45 5.1 Conclusion 45 5.2 Managerial Implications 45 5.3 Limitations and future research 47 REFERENCES 49 APPENDICES 59 APPENDIX A: Survey Questionnaire 59 APPENDIX B: Survey Questionnaire 62 APPENDIX C: Total Variance Explained of Independent Variables .66 APPENDIX D: Histogram, Scatter plot & Normal Regression of Dependent Variable 68 SELLECTED ANTECEDENTS OF CONSUMERS’ ETHICS LIST OF FIGURES Figure 2.1 Research model 16 Figure 3.1 Research Process 18 LIST OF TABLES Table 2.1 The study’s hypotheses 17 Table 3.1 Scales of Consumer Ethics 19 Table 3.2 Scales of Self-monitoring 20 Table 3.3 Scales of Machiavellianism 21 Table 3.4 Scales of Opportunism 22 Table 3.5 Cronbach’s Alpha Reliability Coefficient .24 Table 4.1 Demographic Variables 28 Table 4.2 Reliability Statistics .29 Table 4.3 KMO and Bartlett's Test of Independent Variables 32 a Table 4.4 Rotated Component Matrix for Independent Variables .32 Table 4.5 Summary of EFA for Dependent Variables 34 Table 4.6 Correlations 35 a Table 4.7 Coefficients table 36 b Table 4.8 Model Summary for Dependent Variable: ABIA 37 a Table 4.9 Coefficients for Dependent Variable: ABIA .38 b Table 4.10 Model Summary for Dependent Variable: PBEO 39 a Table 4.11 Coefficients for Dependent Variable: PBEO .39 b Table 4.12 Model Summary for Dependent Variable: ABQA 40 a Table 4.13 Coefficients for Dependent Variable: ABQA 41 b Table 4.14 Model Summary for Dependent Variable: NHNF .42 a Table 4.15 Coefficients for Dependent Variable: NHNF .42 Table 4.16 Summary of the hypothesis testing results 43 SELLECTED ANTECEDENTS OF CONSUMERS’ ETHICS 10 CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 1.1 Research background Business ethics research has focused heavily on marketing exchange and participants within this process (Rawwas, Patzer, & Klassen, 2005; Liu, Zeng, & Su, 2009; Zhao et al., 2013), because marketing exchange is the focal point of most ethical problems in business (Vitell, Singhapakdi, & Thomas, 2001) Although the role of business ethics in the global economy has been thoroughly investigated (e.g., DeGeorge, 1993; Vogel, 1992), international consumer ethics has received growing attention In business, consumers are also the major participants (Vitell and Muncy, 1992) The importance of consumer ethical decision making has received considerable interest (e.g., Fullerton et al., 1996; Muncy and Vitell, 1992; Rawwas, 2003; Vitell et al., 1991) However, consumer ethics in Asian countries have been addressed less frequently (Ang et al., 2001; Chan et al., 1998; Erffmeyer et al., 1999; Rawwas, 2001; Rawwas et al., 1998; Thong and Yap, 1998) There were a few ethical studies targeting Indonesian markets (Rawwas, 2001; Sawono and Armstrong, 2001; Wu, 2001) In addition, although the ethical judgment of consumers in the United States and other industrialized countries has received considerable attention, consumer ethics in Asian-market settings have received less attention (e.g., Ang et al., 2001; Chan et al., 1998; Erffmeyer et al., 1999; Rawwas, 2001; Rawwas et al., 1998; Thong and Yap 1998) Vitell (2003) recommended additional cross-cultural studies Further research is warranted to examine ethical beliefs with more detail and cultural depth to examine the universality of consumers, or lack thereof, with respect to ethical beliefs On the eastern tip of the Indo-China peninsula in south-east Asia, Vietnam is one of the larger and more densely populated countries in the region Confirmed population figures are hard to obtain, but an estimate puts the Vietnam population in 2014 at 92.5 million, up from the 2012 estimate of 91.5 million and this impressive figure would make the country the th th 14 most populous on the planet or 46 most densely populated country on earth Moreover, this is one of the most diverse countries on earth when it comes to ethnicity splits and in fact, the Vietnamese government recognises no less than 54 ethnic groups within the country Furthermore, through the long years of the Vietnam War which have had some form of impact on the standard of living of Vietnamese This truth more or less affects Vietnamese consumers’ ethics on their daily practice The Voice of Vietnam (2015) Counterfeit goods undermine Vietnam’s economic prosperity Retrieved from http://english.vov.vn/Economy/Counterfeit-goods-undermineVietnams-economic-prosperity/287734.vov Thong, J Y L and C.-S Yap (1998) Testing an Ethical Decision-Making Theory: The Case of Softlifting Journal of Management Information Systems, 15(Summer), 213–237 Traphagan, M and A Griffith (1998) Software Piracy and Global Competitiveness: Report on Global Software Piracy International Review of Law, Computer & Technology, 12(3), 431–451 Trevino, L (1986) Ethical decision making in organizations: A person-situation interactionist model Academy of Management Review, 601-617 Uddin, N and Gillett, P R (2002) the effects of moral reasoning and self-monitoring on CFO intentions to report fraudulently on financial statements Journal of Business Ethics, 40, 15–32 Van Kenhove, P., Vermeir, I., and Verniers, S (2001) An empirical investigation of the relationships between ethical beliefs, ethical ideology, political preference and need for closure Journal of Business Ethics, 32(4), 347-36 VietnamPlus (2015) Vietnam, React cooperate in combating counterfeit products Retrieved from http://en.vietnamplus.vn/vietnam-react-cooperate-in-combating-counterfeitproducts/74265.vnp Vishnevsky, T., & Beanlands, H (2004) Qualitative research Nephrology Nursing Journal, 31(2), 234-238 Vitell, S J (2003) Consumer ethics research: Review, synthesis and suggestions for the future Journal of Business Ethics, 43(1/2), 33–47 Vitell, S J and Muncy, J (1992) Consumer ethics: An empirical investigation of factors influencing ethical judgments of the final consumer Journal of Business Ethics, 11(8), 585-597 Vitell, S J., Lumpkin, J R., and Rawwas, M Y A (1991) Consumer ethics:An investigation of the ethical beliefs of elderly consumers Journal of Business Ethics, 10(5), 365375 Vitell, S J and J Muncy (1992) Consumer Ethics: An Empirical Investigation of Factors Influencing Ethical Judgments of the Final Consumer Journal of Business Ethics, 11(August), 585–597 Vitell, S J., Rallapalli, K., & Singhapakdi, A (1993) Marketing norms: the influences of personal moral philosophies and organizational ethical culture Journal of the Academy of Marketing Science, 21(4), 331–337 Vitell, S J., Singhapakdi, A., and Thomas, J (2001) Consumer ethics: An application and empirical testing of the Hunt–Vitell theory of ethics Journal of Consumer Marketing, 18(2), 153–178 Wagner-Tsukamoto, S (2009) Consumer ethics in Japan: An economic reconstruction of moral agency of Japanese firms – qualitative insights from grocery/retail markets Journal of Business Ethics, 84(1), 29 – 44 Wilkes, R E (1978) Fraudulent behavior by consumers Journal of Marketing, 42(October), 67-75 Wu, C.F (2001) The study of global business ethics in East Asia: Taiwanese enterprises in Indonesia as targets The International Journal of Management Science, 29, 221–231 Zhao, B.C and Xu, S.S (2013) Does consumer unethical behavior relate to birthplace? Evidence from China Journal of Business Ethics, 113(3), 475-488 APPENDICES APPENDIX A: Survey Questionnaire English version List of Muncy – Vitell Questionnaire (MVQ) – 26 items Actively benefiting from an illegal activity Returning damaged merchandise when the damage is your own fault Changing price tags on merchandise in a retail store Reporting a lost item as “stolen” to an insurance company in order to collect the money Using a long distance access code that does not belong to you Drinking a can of soda in a supermarket without paying for it Giving misleading price information to a clerk for a nonpriced item Passively benefiting Saying nothing when the waitress miscalculates the bill in your favor Getting too much change and not saying anything Not informing the cashier about an unscanned item placed in the grocery bag Getting more food than you paid for at a fast-food restaurant and not informing the cashier Moving into a new residence and using a preexisting cable service that has not been purchased Lying about a child’s age in order to get a lower price Actively benefiting from a questionable action Using an expired coupon for merchandise Observing someone shoplifting and ignoring it Breaking a bottle of salad dressing in a supermarket and doing nothing about it 4* Stretching the truth on an income tax return 5* Not telling the truth when negotiating the price of a new automobile Using coupon for merchandise that you did not buy Returning merchandise to a store by claiming that it was a gift when it was not No harm, no foul Returning merchandise after trying it and not liking it Tasting grapes in a supermarket and not buying any 3* Spending over an hour trying on different clothes and not purchasing any Taking an ashtray or other “souvenir” from a hotel or restaurant Taping a movie off the television Recording an album instead of buying it Using computer software or games that you did not buy (*) scales were eliminated Self-monitoring (Snyder, 1974) - 18 items I find it difficult to imitate the behavior of other people At parties and social gatherings, I not attempt to or say things that others will like I can only argue for ideas which I already believe I can make important speeches even on topics about which I have almost no information I guess I put on a show to impress or entertain people I would probably make a good actor In groups of people, I am rarely the center of attention (reverse) In different situations and with different people, I often act like very different persons I am not particularly good at making other people like me (reverse) 10 I am not always the person I appear to be 11 I would not change my opinions (or the way I things) in order to please someone else or win their favor 12 I have considered being an entertainer 13 I have never been good at games like charades or improvisational acting (reverse) 14 I have trouble changing my behavior to suit different people and different situations 15 At a party, I let others keep the jokes and stories going (reverse) 16 I feel a bit awkward in company and not show up quite as well as I should 17 I can look anyone in the eye and tell a lie with straight face (if for a right end) 18 I may deceive people by being friendly when I really dislike them Machiavellianism (Christie and Geis, 1970) - 20 items Never tell anyone the real reason why you did something unless it is useful to so The best way to handle people is to tell them what they want to hear One should take action only when sure it is morally right Most people are basically good and kind It is safest to assume that all people have a vicious streak and it will come out when given the chance Honesty is the best policy in all cases There is no excuse for lying to someone else Generally speaking, people won't work hard unless they're forced to so All in all, it is better to be humble and honest than to be important and dishonest 10 When you ask someone to something for you, it is better to give the real reasons for wanting it to than give reasons which carry more weight 11 People who get ahead in the world lead clean, moral lives 12 Anyone who completely trusts others is asking for big trouble 13 The biggest difference between criminals and others is that the criminals are stupid enough to get caught 14 Most people are brave 15 It is wise to flatter important people 16 It is possible to be good in all respects 17 It is hard to get ahead without cutting corners 18 Barnum was wrong when he said that there's a sucker born every minute 19 People suffering from incurable diseases should have the choice of being put painlessly to death 20 Most people forget more easily the death of their father than the loss of their property Opportunism (Dwyer and Oh, 1987) – 08 items At times, I may have to overstate my difficulties in order to get others attention Sometimes data falsification is acceptable With minor injury, people tend to exaggerated claims for bigger compensation It is commonly seen that the insurer often neglected obligations to the claimant In the absent of the boss, the employee shows perfunctory role performance It is acceptable with masking information to the self benefit In developing countries, the company shows compliance only in the face of audit When love gone, empty promises come with love APPENDIX B: Survey Questionnaire
