It focuses on ideas like moral standards, conscience, values, and virtues. CONSCIENCE Conscience is key in ethics, acting as an internal guide that helps individuals distinguish right from wrong. It serves as an innate sense of morality that influences decisions, reflecting one's integration of moral standards and driving ethical behavior. MORAL VALUES Moral values represents the ideals like honesty, kindness, and justice that people cherish and aim to follow. These universal values guide ethical decisions and help individuals live in line with their moral beliefs. Ethical human behavior depends on two things: 1. PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT 2.
