Abstract
The study aimed to identify some ethical practices of faculty members and its relationship
with the students' ethical behavioral practices at Al-Quds University. A stratified random
sample consisting of 366 male and female students was selected, and the descriptive approach
was used as it suits best the nature and objectives of the study. Findings showed that the
ethical practices of the faculty members as perceived by the students were moderate.
However, their ethical behavioral practices were high. The results revealed a significant
difference in the ethical practices of faculty members as perceived by the students due to
college. However, there were differences in the students' ethical behavioral practices due to
gender. Also, college and faculty member’s ethical practices emerged as a significant
predictor of students ethical behavioral practices. Implications of the findings and directions
for future empirical research were discussed.
