liberals think more about the common good of the largest social units — the nation and the whole world, whereas conservatives are more focused on the health of local institutions and communities.

University of Virginia.  Interesting.  Don't know much about their psych program.

There actual surveys could use a good deal of reworking though... as some of their questions are just very poorly worded.

 

Hah, I apparently reject all moral foundations more then both liberals and conservatives... except for fairness.

What that's supposed to mean I don't know.

Purity and Authority are almost at 0.

Loyalty is low too... which is amusing because loyalty means a whole lot to me.

I just view being loyal to yourself as the most important form of loyalty.

 

Hah,but apparently I value all of the foundations more then Liberals and Conservatives.  Except Authority and Purity.

That is... funny if nothing else.

 

Heh. I'm just an exagerrated liberal.

 

(Quiz is at http://www.yourmorals.org/ for those wondering)

 

Edit: And fairness would be high for a libertarian. Means you believe all people should have equal liberties I think...

Also the "It's wrong to ever kill a human being" question got me. I think the death penalty is wrong but euthanasia is right, they both kind of come under the same question.


You've got to take into consideration Self Defense as well.  My fairness didn't score that high either.

 

Is mine.  Which is funny compaired to
