先前的研究发现,在电车困境的不同变体中,支持功利主义决策的人比例有所不同。在本文中,我们探讨了道德选择是否与不同道德困境中的结果概率信念相关。两项实验的结果表明,在类似于经典开关案例和人行天桥案例的两种困境中,参与者对结果概率的看法是不同的。参与者对结果概率的判断与他们的道德选择有关。结果表明,参与者可能不接受任务指示,因此并不认为困境中的结果是确定的。我们认为,支持道德推理研究中的描述性任务的研究人员应该对研究结果持谨慎态度,并应考虑参与者对结果的信念。
Previous studies have found that the proportions of people who endorsed utilitarian decisions varied across different variants of the trolley dilemma. In this paper, we explored whether moral choices were associated with beliefs about outcome probabilities in different moral dilemmas. Results of two experiments showed that participants’ perceptions of outcome probabilities were different between two dilemmas that were similar to the classical switch case and footbridge case. Participants’ judgments of the outcome probabilities were associated with their moral choices. The results suggested that participants might not accept task instructions and thus did not perceive the outcomes in the dilemmas as certain. We argued that researchers who endorse descriptive tasks in moral reasoning research should be cautious about the findings and should take participants’ beliefs in the outcomes into account.
