Ethics and Personality Traits Team

This project draws on the work of Blake Wiley Burlson, who has suggested that MBTI type is related to the way we see and respond to ethical situations.

  • We are interested in seeing how ethical decision making is based in personality traits, with the eventual goal of developing a workshop informed by the findings.
  • Student researchers are involved in this project in the following ways:
    • Literature review
    • Identification of various measures of morality
    • Developing coding schemes
    • Creating and administering pilot studies
