The most adolescents have become themselves perpetrators and victims unknowingly about variety illegal behaviors of the Information Ethics(IE) in the Information-oriented society. To solve the problem, in this paper, we developed the IE Behavior Prediction model through various social psychology theories. And then, we analyzed the relationship between the factors influencing about the adolescents's behavioral intention to perform the Information Ethics by using regression analysis. As a result, 'Attitudes toward the behavior', 'Subjective norms', 'Perceived behavior control', and 'Past behavior' about behavioral intention of the Information Ethics have performed positively. And also they have statically significant. Especially, 'Attitudes toward the behavior' gave the larger effect than the other 3 factors about the Information Ethics Behavior. This result would provide the useful guideline to develop the educational resources, counsel materials, and test items for Information Ethics Behavior.

Misguided use, manipulation, misappropriation, disruption and mismanagement of Information deeply affects the infosphere as well as the social and moral fabric of a society. Information ethics is an attempt to bring the creation, organization, dissemination, and use of information within the ambit of ethical standards and moral codes. The diverse and inherently pluralistic nature of societies however puts forth an additional demand on us - to come up with an intercultural information ethics. An intercultural ethics which is other-centric, context sensitive and workable without being homogenizing, patronizing and colonizing. An endeavor in that direction has already been made by proponents of intercultural information ethics like: Charles M. Ess, Fay Sudweeks, Rafael Capurro, Pak-Hang Wong, Soraj Hongladarom et al. In our paper, we propose that the kind of ethical pluralism being sought in the domain of information ethics can be attained by having a reappraisal of the current methodological strategies, by casting a critical relook at the Eurocentric ethical model. This paper analyses the current framework of Intercultural Information Ethics. And in an endeavour to move towards an all-encompassing, other-centric, workable, intercultural, harmonious and compassionate model of 'Pluralistic Information Ethics', it proposes the Indian / Asian philosophical method of 'Samvāda' to the current inventory which includes methods like: 'parrhesia/free speech' and 'interpretive phronēsis.
