The Mug Wump survey is an effective way to analyze and determine how individuals really make ethical decisions. The results are helpful in understanding both the friction and cooperation we may encounter from those around us including family, friends, employees, supervisors and business associates. Will you take the survey, to see what kind of ethical decision maker you are? It will give you an inside track on how they view our moral compass as well.

There are NO right or wrong answers. The combination of the answers determine what side of two major ethical theories we may personally lean in making ethical decisions most of the time. If we somehow do not fall strictly on one side or the other, then we fall into that great catch all category of peace makers called MUG WUMPS --these are the ones who can look at arguments most of the time from both sides of these competing ethical theories and choose the one that best suits the situation.All decisions are at one time or another based on how we ascribe certain personal values to each scenario whether it it political, religious, or economic.
