Philosophical study of morals (6)

I believe the answer is:

ethics

(Other definitions for ethics that I've seen before include "body of principles" , "Philosophical study of moral values" , "Moral principles of conduct" , "Code of practice for professional people" , "Itches (anag)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
