Joshua Greene introduces his recent Moral Tribes as an "ambitious book" (2013, 5). 1 It covers a vast range of empirical and philosophical ground, including overview Greene's research in the neuroscience morality, survey current state much experimental moral philosophy related areas social sciences, ethical argument for "deep pragmatism" interpretation utilitarianism.Greene is not only ambitious coverage, but also targets.He challenges foundations many historical contemporary approaches...
The advent of large language models (LLMs) and their adoption by the legal community has given rise to question: what types reasoning can LLMs perform? To enable greater study this question, we present LegalBench: a collaboratively constructed benchmark consisting 162 tasks covering six different reasoning. LegalBench was built through an interdisciplinary process, in which collected designed hand-crafted professionals. Because these subject matter experts took leading role construction,...
Abstract Psychologists and experimental philosophers have reported findings showing that in some cases ordinary people's moral intuitions are affected by factors of dubious relevance to the truth intuition. Some defend use intuition as evidence ethics arguing experts this area, philosophers’ both different from those people more reliable. We conducted two experiments indicating non-philosophers do indeed sometimes intuitions, but challenging notion better or reliable intuitions. Keywords:...

A growing body of research has examined how people judge the persistence identity over time-that is, they decide that a particular individual is same entity from one time to next. While great deal progress been made in understanding types features typically consider when making such judgments, date, existing work not explored these judgments may be shaped by normative considerations. The present studies demonstrate beliefs do appear play an important role people's about persistence....
An increasing number of automated and artificial intelligence (AI) systems make medical treatment recommendations, including personalized which can deviate from standard care. Legal scholars argue that following such nonstandard recommendations will increase liability in malpractice, undermining the use potentially beneficial AI. However, depends part on lay judgments by jurors: when physicians AI systems, circumstances would jurors hold liable? <b>Methods:</b> To determine potential jurors’...
A cross-cultural survey experiment revealed a dominant tendency to rely on rule’s letter over its spirit when deciding which behaviors violate the rule. This varied markedly across ( k = 15) countries, owing variation in impact of moral appraisals judgments rule violation. Compared with laypeople, legal experts were more inclined disregard their evaluations acts altogether and consequently exhibited stronger textualist tendencies. Finally, we evaluated plausible mechanism for emergence...
There is a rich tradition in bioethics of gathering empirical data to inform, supplement, or test the implications normative ethical analysis. To this end, bioethicists have drawn on diverse methods, including qualitative interviews, focus groups, ethnographic studies, and opinion surveys advance understanding key issues bioethics. In so doing, they developed strong ties with neighboring disciplines such as anthropology, history, law, sociology. Collectively, these lines research flourished...
For scientific theories grounded in empirical data, replicability is a core principle, for at least two reasons. First, unless we accept to have rest on the authority of small number researchers, studies should be replicable, sense that its methods and procedure detailed enough someone else conduct same study. Second, results provide solid foundation theorizing, they also most attempts replicating original study produced them would yield similar results. The XPhi Replicability Project...
Abstract Despite pervasive variation in the content of laws, legal theorists and anthropologists have argued that laws share certain abstract features even speculated law may be a human universal. In present report, we evaluate this thesis through an experiment administered 11 different countries. Are there cross‐cultural principles law? between‐subjects design, participants ( N = 3,054) were asked whether could violate procedural (e.g., applied retrospectively or unintelligible laws), also...
The Twin Earth thought experiment invites us to consider a liquid that has all of the superficial properties associated with water (clear, potable, etc.) but entirely different deeper causal (composed “XYZ” rather than H 2 O). Debates about natural kind concepts have sought accommodate an apparent fact ordinary people's judgments: Intuitively, is not water. We present results showing people do this intuition. Instead, tend judge there sense in which also it
