Welcoming Another CMD Instrument — The MES: But Don't Throw out the MJI or DIT Just Yet!

James Weber

Business Ethics Quarterly, 1996, vol. 6, issue 4, 517-522

Abstract: This review offers a cautious acceptance of the Multidimensional Ethics Scale (MES) developed by Robin, Gordon, Jordan and Reidenbach. While the contribution of the MES to future empirical research of individuals’ moral reasoning is welcomed, a number of reservations or criticisms are raised regarding theory confusion, instrument confusion, and fears arising when using the MES. I conclude that the MES is a valuable compliment to existing moral reasoning instruments — the Moral Judgment Interview and the Defining Issues Test — but not a replacement of these instruments.
