Description
ABSTRACT This study examines differences in the ethical responses of accountants in an international environment. The link between culture and the gender of the subjects are the variables of interest. Accountants (n=326) from eight countries, representative of Hofstede's (1991) high and low individualism dimension values, were chosen for the study. The respondents were requested to give their agreement level associated with five questionable behaviors associated with the work environment. Each item incorporated an individualism cultural element for the accountants to consider when responding to the survey.
