Understanding Moral Judgments: The Role of the Agent’s Characteristics in Moral Evaluations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Traditional studies have shown that the moral judgments are influenced by many biasing factors, like the consequences of a behavior, certain characteristics of the agent who commits the act, or the words chosen to describe the behavior.
