Abstract :
The purpose of this study was to examine the dimensionality of a moral intensity construct in three ethical dilemmas and how the dimensions directly affect the specific processes of moral decision making of bloggers. A survey was conducted with 365 bloggers through convenience sampling. Results indicated the dimensions of moral intensity will be significant predictors of moral recognition, moral judgment and intentions among three weblog scenarios.
