Research Abstract |
On the concept of "ethicality" ("morality") I have typified it in the previous science research grant study. After that, in this grant research study, (1) after considering arguments about the problem (that could be called an aporia) of "freedom of will" that is a condition of ethicality, I presented a direction of the solving of this problem ; (2) about the problem of the "motivation" to the ethicality, as a "moral psychological" study, especially on the rational ethics, I pointed out that here is a problem in respect of the motivation ; (3) I pointed out problems in such situations as are usually told as "ethicality".
