Abstract

Introduction: Moral judgment is among the topics studied in the field of SOCIAL COGNITION. Adopting a descriptive perspective, MORAL FOUNDATIONS THEORY has introduced six foundations of care/harm, fairness/cheating, loyalty/betrayal, authority/subversion, sanctity/degradation, and liberty/oppression as the basis of morality, suggesting that the degree of people’s belief in each might differ from one culture to another. The current study aims to determine the pattern of reliance on moral foundations within an Iranian group’s mental representation of moralities, and examine its relationship to individuals’ demographic characteristics and the subject domain under question. Method: Participants were 172 Iranians above 18 years of age who were interviewed on three subjects of ideal society, immoral behaviors, and moral behaviors, and their responses were coded according to moral foundations. Statistical techniques of analysis of variance and regression were used for data analysis.Results: Overall, fairness, care and sanctity were the most frequent foundations, whereas loyalty and liberty were the least frequent of all. However, the pattern of foundation endorsement varied depending on the subject domain in question. Reference to different foundations was also predicted by a number of demographic variables.Conclusion: The observed pattern for salience of foundations among the Iranian group in this study had similarities with both Eastern and Western cultures. Results also point to the importance of considering the subject domain along with demographic variables to predict individuals’ reliance on moral foundations in describing their conception of morality.
