Saving Morality: A Case against Moral Neutralism
(2012)The purpose of this paper is to defend a position in metaethics, saving morality from certain reductionist attempts, and arguing that a moral point of view denotes a distinct attitude toward the world with a set of ... -
Altruism and social learning theory; an analysis of gender differences
(2012)Previous research shows that women are more altruist than men in dictator game experiments. Yet, little is known whether women are expected to be more altruist than men. Here we elicit third-parties' beliefs about dictators' ... -
