Abstract: This study examines the influence of ethical rules on Turkish planners’ ability to carry out their duties. Researchers used qualitative and quantitative methods, including a survey with hypothetical scenarios and prioritization tests, to measure ethical preferences. Findings indicate that planners in Turkey make ethically inappropriate choices in providing information outside their field of expertise and publishing information on demand. However, their responsibility to the public and public interest principle come to the forefront in planners’ ethical preferences. Planners preferred deontological ethics in performing their professional duties, but also preferred more political and hybrid roles.
