and Malaysia. It also examines the differences in attitudes towards
business ethics and Isl āmic work ethics across gender and education
levels. The participants were university students of the selected countries.
Self-administered questionnaires i.e. Attitude towards Business Ethics
Questionnaire (ATBEQ) and IWE were used to collect data, applying
convenient sampling method. Overa ll, 537 usable questionnaires
(Pakistan-158; KSA-119; UAE-152 and Malaysia-108) were included in
the data for analyses.
The results of the analysis imply that females scored higher on attitude
towards IWE and males scored higher on attitude towards business ethics.
Furthermore, graduate students were more inclined towards IWE, but
there were no significant differences in attitudes towards business ethics
across education levels. The differences across the c ountries indicated
