上帝是想让人们偏爱同信仰的人,还是希望人们平等地对待群体内和群体外的成员?为了测试人们对上帝道德偏好的信念,我们进行了三项预先登记的研究。研究1是对基督徒和穆斯林斐济人(N=188)进行的实地研究。研究2是一项关于犹太以色列人的在线研究(N=384)。研究3是对基督徒和印度教斐济人(N=539)进行的实地研究。在整个研究中,参与者指出一个组内成员是应该牺牲自己的生命来拯救五个组内成员(在一个困境中),还是应该牺牲自己的生命来拯救五个组内成员(在第二个困境中)。对于每一种困境,他们都会指出上帝的喜好。参与者认为,与他们自己相比,上帝会更强烈地赞同组内成员拯救组外成员。结果概括了之前对穆斯林巴勒斯坦人的研究结果,提供了跨文化证据,表明宗教信徒认为上帝比他们自己更喜欢普遍的道德推理。
Does God want people to favor coreligionists or to treat in-group and out-group members equally? To test people’s beliefs about God’s moral preferences, we conducted three preregistered studies. Study 1 was a field study with Christian and Muslim Fijians (N = 188). Study 2 was an online study with Jewish Israelis (N = 384). Study 3 was a field study with Christian and Hindu Fijians (N = 539). Across studies, participants indicated whether an in-group member should sacrifice his life to save five in-group members (in one dilemma) or out-group members (in a second dilemma). For each dilemma, they then indicated what God would prefer. Participants believed that, compared with themselves, God would more strongly approve of an in-group member saving out-group members. Results generalize results from previous studies with Muslim Palestinians, providing cross-cultural evidence that religious believers think God prefers more universal moral reasoning than they do themselves.
