Moral Foundations Theory Reprise

[nativism] ‘There is a first draft of the moral mind’

[cultural learning] ‘The first draft of the moral mind gets edited during development within a culture’

[intuitionism] ‘Intuitions come first’ --- the Social Intuitionist Model is true

[pluralism] ‘There are many psychological foundations of morality’

Irrelevant to predictions; no relevant evidence.
Now we are getting somewhere. This was partly supported by Hamlin.

Why are ethical judgements sometimes, but not always, a consequence of reasoning from known principles?

This is already a good reason to reject the SIM.
Key issue: are unrelfective judgements essentially the result of the foundations? Dual process theory maybe explains why MFQ goes wrong?

What does the Moral Foundations Questionnaire measure?

Social Intuitionist Model

Unreflective ethical judgements are primarily consequences of moral foundations plus cultural learning.

Dual-Process Theory

Unreflective ethical judgements may be consequences of both fast processes and processes which involve reasoning from known principles.

More noisy on the dual process view.

We should hold on to this. Much better than the dual-process theory with it’s single auxiliary hypothesis. But it’s a goal rather than a currently well-supported theory. Maybe.
