sections of "Experimental Moral Philosophy" for the SEP

MOVING TO THE TOP FEBRUARY 26 (three new links)

 

Fellow xphiles:

Don Loeb and I are writing the entry for "Experimental Moral Philosophy" for the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy.  This is a daunting task, given the huge amount of interesting and diverse work that's relevant.  On my blog, I'm going to be posting drafts of the sections that I write (and maybe the sections that Don writes) for public comments.  If you think I'm getting things totally wrong, or missing something crucial, or am just plain stupid, please let me know in the comments there or by email.

Some posts are now available (others will be added periodically):

(6) UPDATE ADDED FEBRUARY 26: a section on wellbeing

(5) UPDATE ADDED FEBRUARY 20: a section on the linguistic analogy

(4) UPDATE ADDED FEBRUARY 15: a section on emotion and affect

(3) UPDATE ADDED JULY 18: a section on intentionality attributions at the side-effect effect (AKA Knobe effect)

(2) A section on situationism and virtue theory

(1) An introductory section on the projects that experimental ethics is especially suited to

Mark, the sections I've read look very good. This will be a helpful resource, one which I am sharing with my students in my moral psychology class. Thanks!
