关于公共卫生问题的科学争议可能成为情绪战场，充满愤怒、蔑视和厌恶等强烈情绪。当代道德心理学的研究表明，这些情绪中的每一种都是对特定类型的道德违规的反应。将这项工作应用于减少危害的辩论，特别是使用无烟烟草来减少烟草使用的危害，我们试图解释为什么一些公共卫生争议如此激烈。公共卫生伦理学倾向于强调社会正义的关注，而排斥其他重视科学权威、职业忠诚和身体纯洁的道德观点。了解他们不同的情绪反应和潜在的道德动机可能有助于公共卫生专业人员更好地了解彼此的观点，最终导致更富有成效的对话。
Scientific disputes about public health issues can become emotional battlefields marked by strong emotions like anger, contempt, and disgust. Contemporary work in moral psychology demonstrates that each of these emotions is a reaction to a specific type of moral violation. Applying this work to harm reduction debates, specifically the use of smokeless tobacco to reduce harm from tobacco use, we attempt to explain why some public health disputes have been so heated. Public health ethics tend to emphasize social justice concerns to the exclusion of other moral perspectives that value scientific authority, professional loyalty, and bodily purity. An awareness of their different emotional reactions and underlying moral motivations might help public health professionals better understand each others’ viewpoints, ultimately leading to more productive dialogue.
