Abstract

In this study, we explored people’s judgments about the morality of everyday behaviors (e.g., ignoring a sign not to walk on the grass). Initial results suggest that many everyday behaviors are indeed viewed as carrying moral weight and that there is wide variation in people’s tendency to make such judgments.
