Cinert, Vojtěch ; Houdek, Petr (advisor) ; Babin, Jan (referee)
The thesis analyses whether the students of economics reject utilitarian behavior less than students studying various fields than economics. The testing was carried out on the moral dilemmas of so-called "trolley problem". Data was obtained through on-line questionnaire, mainly from students of different universities. The results of the research point out, that in 2 cases out of 6, the students of economics and technical fields reject utilitarian behavior less. The dilemmas are both medical framing. The influence of self-selection was not proved. It is possible, that the studies of economics have an influence on evaluation of the utilitarian behavior.
