Test your moral radar :
Philosopher Eric Schwitzgebel and psychologist Fiery Cushman have designed a 'Moral Sense Test' that asks respondents for their takes on various moral dilemmas so they can compare the responses of philosophers and non-philosophers.
You may recognise Schwitzgebel's name as he writes The Splintered Mind blog that we often link to, owing to his talent for great ideas and explaining philosophy of mind in a compelling and eye-catching manner.
He's been involved in project comparing the intuitions of philosophers and non-philosophers for a while now, and he's now asking that you take part in the research.
The test takes about 15-20 minutes and has a number of interesting moral dilemmas for you to ponder.
