Test Joshua greene's neuroscientific explanation
Agenda
QUESTION 1: What is the key difference between the two Trolley Dilemma scenarios, according to Joshua Greene?
The number of lives that can be saved
The speed of the tram
The physical and emotional distance from the action
The time of day the dilemma occurs
QUESTION 2: What is the "yuk factor"?
The very strong and visceral emotional response against the idea of directly causing harm to another person
The rational justification for saving the greatest number of people
Activation of brain areas related to calculation
The decision not to pull the lever in the first scenario
QUESTION 3: What nullifies the "yuk factor" in our decision-making?
The emotional response
The activation of the emotional areas of the brain
The aversion to committing "murder"
Rational calculation
QUESTION 4: What do Greene's fMRI studies show?
That in both scenarios the same areas of the brain are activated equally
That the pushing scenario activates the emotional areas more, and the lever scenario activates the reasoning areas more
That the brain does not distinguish between the two scenarios
That the "yuk factor" has no neurological basis
QUESTION 5: How is the action of pressing a lever described?
As a personal, physical and direct action
As an action that activates the "yuk factor"
As an action that intensely activates the emotional areas
As an impersonal and remote action
QUESTION 6: The fact that more people are willing to pull a lever that opens a trapdoor shows that
It is the personal and physical nature of the act of pushing that holds us back
People like trapdoors
Rational calculation is always the dominant factor
Emotional distance is not a relevant factor
QUESTION 7: Which brain areas predominate when considering the lever scenario?
Areas associated with emotions
The areas that generate the "yuk factor"
Areas related to reasoning and calculation
Motor areas only
QUESTION 8: The aversion to committing "murder" with our own hands is an example of
A rational calculation
An automatic emotional response
A decision based on pure logic
Activation of the prefrontal cortex
