Moral Foundations Quiz

[We Never Know]

Fascinating, you also scored highly on Nurture but your high score on Tradition pushed you over into the Conservative category.

Yep. Yours and mine were pretty close on the others.

Eeek! We agree on things! We can't have that!

Where do you moral foundations lie?
Obviously you need a quiz on the internet to tell you!

Too many questions - 36. I do not need them. The basis of morality is society.

I got You Are None of These.

[Altfish]

• Nurture 78%

• Tradition 44%

• Liberty 44%

Your strongest moral foundation is Nurture.

Your morality is closest to that of a Left-Liberal.

I also got nurture left liberal with less than 50% tradition.

Found the vast majority of questions either without enough information Or just straight none of my business, which often proved neutral replies. I wonder just how many left liberal questions had positive responses and what, if anything, that says about the quiz.

I got 83% nurture, 34% tradition and 44% liberty. I certainly found myself going with neutral on a lot of questions as they seemed neither moral nor immoral to me.

I also agree that many questions could be interpreted in multiple ways and that I would need more information to answer properly. This one for example:

The principal of a school says that none of her students are allowed to draw Muhammad on the school premises, or to bring Muhammad cartoons to school.

What's the context behind this? Is the teacher preventing freedom of expression because of her religious views or is she afraid for the safety of her students? I had to go with neutral.


Perhaps some more guidance on precisely what the scale represents would have been helpful here. Does picking the highest end of "morally okay" imply that something is merely acceptable or is it something you deem necessary for a moral life? Since I genuinely don't give a damn whether or not a woman kisses two strangers in a bar, what part of the scale should I tick?

I took this and go the results
Your strongest moral foundation is Nurture.

Your morality is closest to that of a Left-Liberal.

• Nurture 82%

• Tradition 39%

• Liberty 58%

Some of the questions seemed like they needed a bit more context for me to assume they really even fit into a moral category. A lot of them were just sort of weird social interactions that I didn't much have an opinion on.

I had the same issue where a lot of these questions kind of need more information for me to have an opinion on. Without context a lot of these questions are pretty meaningless to me.

Interesting how an inherent assumption of the test is that a particular human is anthropocentric in orientation. Not surprising, but interesting.

• Your scores:

• Nurture 76%

• Tradition 33%

• Liberty 44%

Your strongest moral foundation is Nurture.

It seems that most people in this thread got similar results.


What I found interesting in taking this test is how different my answers would have been if it was about government or the legal system. Many things that I believe are wrong I also believe should be legal. I think if this had been about what should be allowed by law I would have scored much higher on liberty. But the most of the questions just asked if I thought it was wrong.

 

[We Never Know]

Well there's this too....

Interesting. Thanks.

Several questions, in my opinion, weren't moral issues, and involved matters that I would advise against as being imprudent, but not immoral. For example, "Sarah gets drunk in a bar and makes out with two strangers at once." This is a poor idea, but I don't consider it immoral, just risky.

Likewise with, "Brian does not cooperate with law enforcement. Whenever he is pulled over, he refuses to answer questions and starts bickering with the officer about his rights." This is a poor strategy tome, but not immoral to me.

"John's soccer coach decides that everyone on the team must wear black soccer shoes, but on the day of the match, John turns up in white soccer shoes instead." I would advise against this but didn't consider it immoral.

"Scott is hosting a dinner party. For dessert, he serves chocolate cake, shaped to look like dog poop." Same thing.

So, there are many things I would consider mistakes, but not immoral, which generally involves harming others. They're social blunders potentially harmful to oneself.

There's a profound lack of emphasis on 'liberty' here I notice.

This strikes me as odd!

This could be actually ok socially depending on what the dinner party is for. Like if it's a kids birthday party and the kid asks prior for there to be gross looking foods. Like fake eyeballs, slime, you know things kids might find funny. Kids find gross stuff funny. They got a lot of toilet humor for instance

@Left Coast

I took it, and all it said was "Somebody will be along shortly to have a discussion with you."

I got nurture 79, tradition 61, liberty 78 - Conservative.
