Implicit Self-Esteem Across Cultures
I have carried out certain personality tests in analyzing the issues that took place in Air Asia case study that has facilitated me in offering effective viewpoints based on my personality test results.
I have attained understanding on the issue of Gold and Diamond Watch case. It has been gathered from the case that it explains a story regarding a salesman of Anderson Office Supplies within Australia in Sydney region and the person is observed to attend a sales trip for the first time in Middle East (Deppe et al., 2015). From analyzing the case of Air Asia, I gathered a viewpoint that David joined colleagues as guests of suppler seat craft who were bidding on a new contract to supply AAA with aircraft seats. Such act of accepting invitations was prohibited in attempt of maintaining airline safety and in this case, it is violated.I also attained an understanding from the case that the purchasing officer of the middle east government asked the person to bring a gift in the golden form that is made of Rolex for attaining success in the business agreement. When the person returned from the office, h explained his experience with the supervisor regarding the agreement. In such scenario, I have attained an understanding that his supervisor got angry and too the decision to fire him if he was involved in any bribery case. Despite such treat, the salesman took the decision to enter int an agreement with all his counterparts in Middle East. For this reason, he took the decision to purchase the watch from his own money and in such scenario, he got caught and the company released him (Falk & Heine, 2015). From the findings of the result I have gathered that Richard had to deal with certain moral constraints that I feel is not followed by the person in his previous business conducts.
From analyzing Air Asia case I have gathered that the company was involved in unethical act of violating AAA because of which David was fined and was sent to jail for being involved in such conduct. In such scenario, it can be gathered that justice theory was violated by David in maintaining consumer safety and by not following suitable code of conduct. Moreover, as per this theory some distributive principles needed to be followed in maintaining basic structure of society that was violated in this case. I have carried social group survey test from which I have revealed the way I reveal about all the social groups that is associated with certain five psychological morality foundations. The foundations that was included in the test includes harm, loyalty, fairness, purity and authority. From the moral foundations of this scale I have gathered that I have strong moral fixations in leading the team to have distinct gut-level emotional reactions to distinct group of individuals (Hogan& Foster, 2016). I also tend to have a nature of caring deeply and have warm feelings towards Americans and unfavorable feeling towards the people those are in protest of the American flag. From my analysis of the gathered results I have attained an understanding regarding my theoretical understanding on my moral consideration. I attained a high score on this trait and my economic aspect attained a medium score. Moreover, I have obtained a score of 5 out of 7 on my views on morality (Koopman &Hakemulder, 2015).
Cognitive Reflection Test and Reflection vs. Intuition
I have analyzed the Gold Watch case and attempted to analyze the ethical issues existing in this case. Considering the same, I have carried out certain personality tests that has revealed about my ability of making ethical judgements.Ethical models, personal ethics along with ethical dilemma is considered to be necessary hat has facilitated me in dealing with the ethical dilemma and in taking any decision. In the paper I have focused on formed and shaped. Ethics is deemed to be to be branch of philosophy which deals with regarding morality and also have invariably played as a vital part of my life, particularly some of these theories like the moral rights, justice theory and utilitarianism (Bandura, 2015). From the findings of the result I have gathered that Richard had to deal with certain moral constraints that I feel is not followed by the person in his previous business conducts. From attaining the results of my diagnostic tool is have realized that the role of moral and ethical consideration as per the provided case is focused an generating a better framework for all the company activities. From my analysis of the gathered results I have attained an understanding regarding my theoretical understanding on my moral consideration (Bedford & David, 2014). I attained a high score on this trait and my economic aspect attained a medium score. Moreover, I have obtained a score of 5 out of 7 on my views on morality. This trait indicated that I have an increasing understanding regarding follow-up on the observed ethical considerations that is deemed to be lacking in the case provided.
I have carried out big five personality test to analyze the Gold Watch case and I have gathered that the test sometimes referred to be the “master traits” of human personality. I gathered from the gold watch case that Ryan was involved in bribery that is highly unethical act in my viewpoint. I feel that such act was not moral to accept a bribe for securing any deal.I have also gathered that I have openness experience and my high experience indicates that I have high interests and is observed to be highly imaginative (McKay, Wulf, Lewthwaite &Nordin,2015). If I have low scores it might have explained as down-to-earth, traditional, practical and is set in my ways. My sub-scale test results also indicated my strongest association with politics and as I am liberal I have scored high on this trait and I have attained trait of variety and traits. My conservative trait has attained a lower score regarding this trait. The test also revealed a suitable score regarding conscientiousness. In this trait I have also gathered have the trait of having high standards and have the ability to attain their goals (Pennycook, Cheyne, Koehler &Fugelsang, 2016).
Personality Tests in Air Asia and Gold and Diamond Watch Cases
They are also observed to be uptight and in case I had low scores I world have been careless in making decisions and implementing them. In extraversion I have also high scores in extraversion that indicates I am quite extraverted, active, outgoing and high-spirited. From the gathered test results, I have attainedan understanding that I do not hold traits of being introvert, serious and reserved (Sharp e al., 2015). I hold the trait of being socially active and I am quite happier than the introvert people. In the resultscore, I have observed that on the point of agreeableness I am observed to have the nature of good nature, agreeableness and eagerness to avoid conflict and the low scores in few of the results of the test also indicated that I am a bit proud, skeptical, competitive and do not tend to indicate the nature of angerquiet frequently. The test results also indicated my nature based on the aspect neuroticism (Stein& Grant,2014). It has been revealed that I am a bit sensitive, emotional and tend to experience certain feelings those are quite disappointing. These results also revealed that I do not feel the sense of being hardy, secure and tension free at the time I face stressful situations in my life (Bedford & David, 2014).
