Ajzen’s theory of planned behavior, behavioral intentions, such as plans to major inor work in engineering, are informed by three factors: (a) attitude toward the behavior, (b)subjective norms, and (c) perceived behavioral control [5]. Ajzen defined attitude toward thebehavior as the general disposition toward performing a particular behavior; thus behavioralintentions serve as proxies for motivations. In general, the magnitude of a behavioral intention istheorized to correspond to the likelihood of behavioral performance.Ajzen recognized that general dispositions toward behaviors alone are poor predictors ofbehaviors. Thus, he added the concepts of subjective norms and perceived behavioral control toaid in explaining additional variation in

(a is to b, as x is to y). Most often, we encounter analogy as a form of reasoning (“analogical reasoning”) aimed at persuading an audience. For example, a common refrain in U.S. political campaigns involves variations of the following analogy: “My opponent is a Democrat, and Democrats raise taxes. I’m a Republican, and Republicans don’t raise taxes. So vote for me and I won’t raise your taxes!” In engineering, analogical reasoning is a common strategy during the design and iteration process. Analogical reasoning, “a form of inference that allows us to derive implications from single cases even when we do not know all the factors involved,” enables engineers to make comparison-based predictions [33]. For example

distinct from and, we argue, secondary to how individuals are orientedtoward ethics generally. Frameworks emphasize how individuals value, in terms of the practical rational andmotivational aspects of decision-making, while foundations of ethics emphasize what individuals value, orhow value priorities are structured for each individual. In the context of engineering, you might imagine ascenario where an individual engineer approaches a problem X with a certain implicit value orientation (callit A). A second engineer approaches that same problem X with a different value orientation, B. Aframework-based approach to engineering ethics might help us understand that these two engineers maymake different decisions, but they do not – and cannot – help us
