Personal Sense of Power and Moral Dilemma Judgments:The Mediating Role of Moral Thinking Orientation

  

  • Online:2022-08-01 Published:2022-08-29

Abstract:

Based on the process dissociation analysis model of moral dilemma judgments and the survey of 236 college students, the present study explores the relationship between personal sense of power, moral thinking orientation and moral dilemma judgments. The results find that: (1) personal sense of power indirectly promotes individual’s utilitarian tendencies (U-parameter) by increasing the deliberation moral thinking and decreasing the sentiment moral thinking, with no direct effect on utilitarian moral judgments; and (2) personal sense of power directly and positively predicts individual’s deontological tendencies (D-parameter) without the mediation of moral thinking orientation. It is indicated that personal sense of power influences utilitarian and deontological moral judgments by different mechanisms.

Key words: personal sense of power, moral dilemma judgements, moral thinking orientation, process dissociation analysis model
