Overview
Project status: In progress
This project investigates the effects of moral sentiments and emotions on decision processes. It will identify states of physiological arousal, determine whether a significant genetic effect is present, assess the relevance of individuals’ environment and inherited values, and provide a better biological micro-foundation for human behaviour.
The project involves collaboration with researchers in the USA, Switzerland and Sweden.
