Abstract

Humans are capable of moral judgment. They have extremely sophisticated beliefs about how they should or should not behave in morally significant situations. What is the nature of these moral choices? To answer this question, the author examines the study of those cognitive devices, which provide the basis for the processing of moral beliefs, and, in particular, she focuses on the idea that the process of formation of such beliefs depends heavily on the action of emotional mechanisms.
