Test The emotional dog and its rational tail
Agenda
QUESTION 1: According to Jonathan Haidt's metaphor, what are most of our moral decisions like?
Slow, logical and deliberate
Based on a rational thinking process
Fast, intuitive and impulsive, like the movement of a dog's tail
They always seek objective truth
QUESTION 2: What is the main function of the rational part of our mind (the tail) in making moral decisions?
Justify the decision that the emotional part has already made
Make the decision logically and objectively
Cancel the impulsive decision of the emotional part
Act like a detective in search of the truth
QUESTION 3: What does Jonathan Haidt compare our moral reasoning to?
With an impartial judge
With a scientist who seeks objective truth
With an emotional dog
With a defense attorney looking for arguments for an already decided conclusion
QUESTION 4: What is "post-hoc rationalization"?
The process of making a decision through logical thinking
The process of creating rational justifications for a decision that was actually emotional and intuitive
The quick and impulsive decision of our "emotional dog"
The search for objective truth as a detective

Intuitively decide what is right or wrong
Look for arguments to justify the decision
It represents the rational part of our mind
Seek objective truth
QUESTION 6: How does the Trolley Dilemma relate to post-hoc rationalization?
It shows that our decisions are always logical

QUESTION 7: When we rationalize post-hoc, what are we not aware of?
That we have come to the decision through logic
That our decision was really emotional

That we are acting as a defense attorney
