Is morality unified? Evidence that distinct neural systems underlie moral judgments of harm, dishonesty, and disgustCarolyn Parkinson

Hypnotic disgust makes moral judgments more severeThalia Wheatley
National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Maryland 20892, USA
Psychol Sci 16:780-4. 2005..Two studies show that moral judgments can be made more severe by the presence of a flash of disgust. These findings suggest that moral judgments may be grounded in affectively laden moral intuitions...
