ively small sample size of students and the question of genaralizability. Although we do not claim that our results are universally generalizable, they provide researchers and practitioners with a starting point. Another concern is that our findings do not exactly replicate Hofstede’s (1991) results. There may be several explanations for this, as we mentioned previously; however, we intend to measure the cultural values in different countries in future studies and compare them with Hofstede’s findings. Other factors, such as business history, the role of third parties in transactions, the pay levels of civil servants, civil and government corruption, and so forth, may also play a significant role in explaining differences in ethical practices. Further research can also focus on investigating the cultural values in other countries and their relationships to marketing ethical norms. Although it will be difficult to match the cultural values of an individual manager and the amount and content of ethics education or training, training modules can be developed for managers from a country that intends to conduct business in another country. In both cases (i.e., culture and ethics), we used an etic perspective by assuming that the theory and constructs are universal. However, because the results show that different dimensions of the culture influence the different facets of marketing ethical norms uniquely in both countries, we suggest the use of an adaptiv英语论文网 【http://www.51lunwen.org】e etic or a linked emic approach, as Douglas and Craig (2006) recommend. Furthermore, the evolution of culture is a dynamic process. It would be worthwhile to conduct a longitudinal study in which the culture values and the resulting change in the marketing ethics of a group of manCultural Values on Marketing Ethical Norms 49 agers from a specific country are measured and monitored over time. In addition, our study examined only two countries; an investigation of the interrelationship of cultural values and marketing ethical norms in several countries could provide valuable insights. It has been acknowledged that cultural values may form at several levels, such as individual, organizational, industry, and national. These values and the adaptation of the ethical norms may not necessarily be identical (Donaldson and Dunfee 1999). Further research could measure cultural values at different levels and then identify whether it makes any difference in ethical decision making at corresponding levels. For example, at the individual level, Kohlberg’s (1981) theory of moral development—which holds that as people develop morally, they move through ever-widening circles of concern from themselves to peers and, ultimately, to society at large—can be tested for cross-cultural effects. The twenty-first century may become known as the century of the “global world” (House et al. 2004), and this presents several opportunities and challenges, the most important of whic
