Abstract

This study empirically examined the relationship among ethical leadership, ethical climate, unethical behavior, and organizational commitment in the department affiliated with physical education. Survey data collected from 264 students in the department affiliated with physical education from 5 institutions of a 4-year university located in Seoul and Incheon by convenience sampling. As a result, H1, ethical leadership was not statistically significant with unethical behavior. H2, ethical leadership had a positively significant impact on ethical climate. H3, ethical leadership was found to be positively associated with organizational commitment. H4, ethical climate was not statistically significant with unethical behavior. H5, ethical climate had a positively significant impact on organizational commitment. H6 was not available. H7, ethical climate partially mediated the relationship between ethical leadership and organizational commitment. The theoretical and practical implications of the research findings was discussed.

본 연구는 체육계열학과 학생들이 인지하는 교수들의 윤리적 리더십 행동과 학과의 윤리적 풍토를 확인하고 그에 따른 학생들의 비윤리적 행동과 조직 몰입의 결과를 밝히고자 한다. 서울, 인천 지역에 소재하고 있는 4년제 5개 대학교의 체육계열학과 264명을 연구대상으로 하였다. 편의표본추출법을 통하여 자기평가기입법으로 응답하도록 하였다. 결과적으로, 가설 1, 윤리적 리더십은 비윤리적 행동에 통계적으로 유의한 영향을 미치지 않았다. 가설 2, 윤리적 리더십은 윤리적 풍토에 긍정적인 영향을 미쳤다. 가설 3, 윤리적 리더십은 조직 몰입에 긍정적인 영향을 미쳤다. 가설 4, 윤리적 풍토는 비윤리적 행동에 통계적으로 유의한 영향을 미치지 않았다. 가설 5, 윤리적 풍토는 조직 몰입에 긍정적인 영향을 미쳤다. 가설 6, 윤리적 풍토는 윤리적 리더십과 비윤리적 행동사이에 매개역할을 하지 않았다. 가설 7, 윤리적 풍토는 윤리적 리더십과 조직몰입사이에 부분매개역할을 하였다. 스포츠 현장으로 진출하는 스포츠 사회인의 윤리성을 교육시키고 윤리적 행동을 고취시키기 위한 기초단계의 정보를 제공할 것으로 기대된다.
