2. Ethics is a branch of philosophy that studies the nature
and the morality of human conduct. To some extent,
Ethics is related to other sciences because it also deals
with the investigation of the nature of man as a rational
being and a being in relation with other beings.
Ethics is to study man’s nature and his behavior from the
standpoint of morality. The material object of Ethics is
the human conduct and the object is morality.
INTRODUCTION

3. Ethics is the study of correct action or doing, while Logic studies
the process of correct and organized thinking.
Doing follows thinking. Logic therefore is aimed at the right thinking
and Ethics is aimed at the right acting or right doing and behavior.
ETHICS AND LOGIC
On intellectual qualities,
-Ethics is people oriented while logic is task oriented.
-Ethics is focused on enhancing relationships, modifying
content and forms of speech to match and contradict what
others expect to hear. Logic is focused on not misleading a
person and giving him correct information.

4. ETHICS AND SOCIOLOGY
-Society depends on Ethics for its underlying principles,
Sociology deals with human relations in a society, but
human relations are based on the proper order and the
proper order comes only with the proper observance of
moral laws and principles which regulate the actions of
men and women in a community.
ETHICS AND PSYCHOLOGY
Psychology is not interested in the morality of human
behavior, while Ethics is concerned with man’s moral
obligation or the result of his behavior.
Ethics is the study of human behavior from the
perspective of morality. Psychology, on the other
hand, is the scientific study of mental and behavioral
characteristics, associated with a particular kind of
behavior.
Both Ethics and Psychology deals with the study of man
and his behavior. However, Psychology studies how man
behaves, while Ethics studies how man ought to behave.

7. ETHICS AND LAW
-Ethics and law are closely related. Ethics deals with
morality, and when we speak of morality, we mean
primarily the moral law.

morality presuppose the concept of right and
wrong, good and bad, and the rules of conduct.

values governing an individual or institutional
behavior.
Religion generally refers to the service and worship
of God and is typically expressed as a personal or
institutional set of beliefs, attitudes and practices.

Ethics seeks the absolute truth by using human
reason alone, while religion tries to understand his
same absolute truth by virtue of one’s faith and his
adherence to divine revelation.

behavioral guidelines that members of a

adhere to and questionable situations in
which they must be involved.

training by which people learn to develop
and use their mental, moral, and physical
powers and abilities. It is also one way of

to protect the moral character in man.

imagination to make things of aesthetics
significance. Ethics is aimed at
conforming to an accepted standard of
good behavior.
