Morality on the road: the ADC model in low-stakes traffic vignettes by Michael Pflanzer, Dario Cecchini, Sam Cacace, Veljko Dubljević

“…While much of the existing research has focused on high-stakes moral dilemmas, such as those exemplified by the trolley problem, everyday traffic situations—characterized by mundane, low-stakes decisions—remain underexplored.MethodsThis study addresses this gap by empirically investigating the applicability of the Agent-Deed-Consequences (ADC) model in the moral judgment of low-stakes traffic scenarios. …”
