Aннотация:
This study sought to determine whether social class contributed to differences in
moral justifications and moral decision-making. The study also sought to determine
whether particular situational variables, namely the nature of the relationship between
individuals depicted in a moral dilemma and the severity of the grievance depicted
in a moral dilemma, had an influence upon moral decision-making and moral justifications.
Results found significant differences between the lower-income and middle-upper income
participants in both their moral decisions and in their moral justifications. More
specifically, it was found that participants from the middle-upper income community
chose to fink significantly more frequently than did their lower-income counterparts
and that this trend was associated with the middle-upper-income participants more
commonly employing an ethic of autonomy rather than an ethic of community in their
moral justifications. The findings provide some support for the cultural psychological
perspective that emphasizes the significant impact of culture on morality. Implications
for further research are discussed.
