From Jonathan Haidt's TED Talk: YourMorals.org
Here is the excellent video (thanks theaceofclubz
): The Difference Between Democrats and Republicans - TED
During the talk he mentioned the surveys made available by him and his team at http://www.YourMorals.org. The site has you register an account (pain-free) so that they can save your demographic data, see how certain participant groups respond across surveys, and, of course, so you can view your survey results at any time. I decided to take several of the surveys, but for now I'll just post my results for the Moral Foundations Questionnaire. I'm curious to see how the VS community is shaped.

my15minutesi don't like questionnaires, so i'll just give you the answers.
harm - extremely high
fairness - relatively low
loyalty - fairly high
authority - very low
purity - nil
my15minutesps. my demographic data would be the same, with the exception of the second and the last.
just created a login there, and scanned that q'airre. and yeah, it sorta had the same... difficult generalities? that i find in a lot of q'airres. which is why it was easier to simply rank those 5 'qualities' honestly.
which is pretty easy, by inventing a moral situation, which forces you to choose between any 2 of those 5. so, a friend of yours walked up to some stranger on the street, and decked them for no good reason. loyalty vs harm
