| Итог: | This research illustrates dangers inherent in the gap created when organizations decouple ethics program adoption from implementation.

Findings strongly support the hypothesized relationships between decoupling and organizational members’ legitimacy perceptions of the ethics program, psychological contract breach, organizational cynicism, and unethical behavior. |
