Ethical Decision-Making and Implications for Decision Support

With increasing complexity of decision support systems, organizational decision making is often integrated directly into products. Evidence shows that decision-making in ethical contexts can be influenced by decision support. When designing DSS, these ethical consideration could be taken into consideration only if we understand how ethical decision making effects usage of technology. This paper reviews a model for decision-making and various instruments that measure those factors, and suggests implications for DSS design.
