| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study provides a descriptive understanding concerning pluralism and irrationality embedded in human moral thinking, via considering into account empirical findings about psychological processes underlying moral judgments and moral decision making, and biases within them. In addition, this study clarifies what normative implications such a descriptive understanding may have on some issues in ethical theories, such as debates concerning moral responsibility, human agency, and moral objectivity.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究は、倫理学上の論争における経験的知見の方法論的役割の明確化や、道徳的責任や行為者性にまつわる論争の歴史的な再理解をもたらすものである。またその一部は、自由意志の概念／信念の認識的起源に関する洞察をもたらすものであり、この点は今後の研究でさらなる展開を図る予定である。
