본 연구는 연구조직의 구성원들의 연구윤리의 실천 현황을 파악하고 조직에 미치는 영향의 분석을 목적으로 수행되었다. 연구방법은 연구환경에서 윤리실천의 기본지침으로 인정받고 있는 레스닉(David B.Resnik)교수의 과학윤리 지침을 이론적 배경으로 하여 연구가설을 설정하고 과학기술 분야의 연구업무를 수행하는 연구자를 대상으로 조사하였다. 연구 결과, 연구자의 성별은 연구윤리의 실천 차원에 유의한 영향을 미치지 못했지만, 연구자의 나이는 특정 요인에서 의미 있는 결과를 보였다. 또한, 연구윤리의 실천차원 중에서 연구진실성 요인은 조직의 연구윤리 수준에 유의한 결과를 나타냈다.

The purpose of this study was to measure employee ‘awareness’ and ‘practice’ of business ethics in the foodservice industry, and to determine possible correlations between these two variables. Self administrated questionnaires were completed by 1003 employees and data were analysed to ascertain frequency, factor, reliability, correlation and canonical correlation. Two factors were obtained from factor analysis of business ethics(BE) awareness; “Organizational awareness”, and “Individual awareness”. Similarly, two factors were also obtained for business ethics practice; “Systematic practice”, and “Compensatory practice”. Canonical correlation analysis produced two significant functions. For canonical function 1, it was found that organizational awareness of BE was positively correlated with systematic practice. For canonical function 2, it was found that individual awareness of BE was negatively correlated with the compensatory practices of BE. The findings of this study demonstrate that higher organizational awareness of business ethics in the foodservice industry led to higher systematic practices of BE, while higher individual awareness of BE led to lower compensatory practices of BE. In conclusion, higher organizational awareness of BE places a higher priority on building an external system from an institutional perspective, while higher employees awareness of BE leads to higher expectation from the company, resulting in relatively low compensatory practices.
