Additional Course Details: 
What is the right thing to do?
 
The sub-field of Moral Psychology does not attempt to directly address the issue of what right
action is. Rather, it asks this question:
 
How do people decide what is right or wrong?
Moral Psychology involves investigating the relationship between moral reasons and motivation,
the social function of moral decision-making, the role of emotions and reasons in moral decision-
making, and the psychological ofindividuals who are faced with moral judgements and choices.
raditionally, philosophers from Plato to Hobbes and beyond have emphasized history and
conceptual analysis in their efforts to answer these questions. Why do human beings engage in
the normative practices known as "ethics" or “morality"? What function does morality serve in a
given culture? How should we understand altruistic behavior, and its relationship to egoistic
behavior?
