Cognitive Mechanisms, Judgment MakingAbstract
An integration of two papers, provides a holistic understanding of the cognitive mechanisms that take over when an overpowering emotional response conflicts with the ability to make utilitarian judgements. The findings of two papers delve deeper into how different emotions influence whether we uphold deontological or consequentialist judgements. More importantly, it examines the alternate cognitive route that moral judgment can take – namely one involving emotion rather than rational thought. Finally, it answers the question of whether utilitarian judgements can be upheld in the face of strong emotional and moral dissonance.Metrics
