In this study, it is aimed to model the patterns of unethical behaviors by determining some of the unethical behaviors in the use of information and communication technologies. A 28-point “ICT Ethics” measurement instrument was developed including unethical usage behaviors of information and communication technologies. Measurement instrument was applied with online data collection method to 362 high school students between the ages of 14 and 18 who were selected relevant to the convenient sampling method. Unethical behaviors were graded in a two dimensional seven-point Likert-type scale regarding participants’ own observation and acceptance levels. Data were tested in order to verify the measurement instrument’s factorial structure with exploratory and confirmatory factor analyzes. Unethical ICT usage behaviors’ structural equation model was drawn according to the results of the analysis of the compatible data-model fit indices. It is determined that the drawn model is in correlation with the four subdimensions; integrity, information and communication technologies’ social impact, intellectual property and safety.
