Survey interviews and focus group follow‐ups with civil servants participating in graduate training programs at the Russian Academy of Public Service provide information about their preferred mode of ethical reasoning; the demographic, attitudinal, organizational, and professional factors associated with that reasoning; and the behavioral choices implied. Using a sample of 113 public officials who represent a broad spectrum of regions in Russia, this study assesses moral reasoning, examines variables associated with alternative models, and compares these responses with findings from studies conducted in Poland and the United States. Based on this exploratory study, we suggest implications for theory, research, and practice.}, number={3}, journal={PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION REVIEW}, author={Stewart, DW and Sprinthall, NA and Kem, JD}, year={2002}, pages={282–297} }
