| Abstract | Moral dilemmas pitting concerns about actions against concerns about consequences have been used by philosophers and psychologists to gauge “universal” moral intuitions. Although these dilemmas contain no overt political content, we demonstrate that liberals are more likely than conservatives to be concerned about consequences, whereas conservatives are more likely than liberals to be concerned about actions. This effect is shown in two large, heterogeneous samples and across several different moral dilemmas. In addition, manipulations of dilemma aversiveness and order of presentation suggest that this political difference is due in part to different sensitivities to emotional reactions in moral decision-making: Conservatives are more likely to “go with the gut” and let affective responses guide moral judgments, while liberals are more likely to deliberate about optimal consequences. |
