BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE STUDY

In the project, we take a closer look at how people perceive their own morality. We conduct our studies online, in order to ensure full anonymity and confidentiality of data. Taking part in the study is voluntary. Participants need to be 18 years old.

In our study, we ask anonymous people about their (un)ethical behavior, as well as their moral beliefs and moral emotions. We are particularly interested in the unethical behavior of respondents (such as cheating on a partner, fraud at work, theft). Nevertheless, any person can enter our study by filling in the questionnaire, and consequently learn more about their morality. Each respondent receives immediate feedback after completing the study. Participants may resign from the study at any moment.

ACTIONS

The aim of the project is to reach the biggest number of participants, especially those who have done something unethical and want to share such information anonymously, supporting the research in the field of moral psychology.

Participants (adults, at different ages, with different levels of education, both male and female) will complete a number of tools regarding their moral beliefs and emotions; they will also be asked about anti-social behaviors.

We plan to carry out our study for a minimum period of 3 years.

THE MAIN posed question is

Which moral beliefs and emotions characterize people who engage in socially undesirable behaviors?
