  • Abstract
    Students in a computers-and-society course learning ethics were given a test to measure the test taker´s ethicality both before and after learning ethics. The data show that learning ethics had no effect on the student´s ethicality. In some ways, the students were actually slightly more expedient after learning ethics.
