“…Note, however, that this concerns moral values as a general construct because we did not find support for the five separate moral foundations this theory describes (Graham et al., 2012; Haidt, 2012). The same low reliabilities of these five foundations were found in previous research with the MFQ in the Netherlands (Quintelier, Ishii, Weeden, Kurzban, & Braeckman, 2013), suggesting that the MFQ is culturally sensitive. Nevertheless, analyses with a general scale for moral values importance show that that people who consider morality more important have a more positive attitude toward community policing as well as more other‐concerning emotions (e.g., gratitude and pride).…”

Although there is a large potential of citizen capital in fighting crime and creating safer neighborhoods, in reality, only a small fraction of citizens is actively participating. This study examines the relationship between different types of actual participation behavior in the police domain from a citizen's stance and 3 different but interconnected psychological drivers: the attitude toward citizen participation, moral values, and moral emotions. A total of 217 Dutch citizens filled out an online questionnaire, assessing these drivers and the actual participatory actions they engaged in over the past year. The results show that 4 broad categories of participation behavior can be distinguished: social control (e.g., correcting others regarding their behavior); responsive participation (e.g., calling the police); collaborative participation (e.g., meeting with a police officer); and detection (e.g., joining a neighborhood watch). As expected, moral values had an indirect influence on participation via attitude and moral emotions. The attitude toward citizen participation was positively related to all four types of reported behavior, while the influence of moral emotions only related to social control and responsive behavior. These results can be used in the design and testing of interventions to stimulate citizen participation.

“…Similarly, those arguing so ardently against abstinence only sex education need to accept that there is at least the possibility that if they responded more strongly and negatively to sexual imagery than they currently do, they might have a different view of the evidence on the effectiveness of abstinence only education. This fits with psychological theories regarding endorsing or engaging in lifestyle choices that fit with an individual's reproductive and perhaps life history strategy (Quintelier et al 2013;Kruger & Fisher 2008;Kurzban et al 2010).…”

“…Because demographic variables also can be predictive of preferences on sex-related issues (Wilcox & Norrander, 2002), we tested the relationship between our two measures of response to sex-related materials and preferences for sex-related policies (using the index of the four sex-related items) in the context of a multivariate regression model controlling for education, income, age, gender and party identification. We also included a two-item measure of the Big 5 personality trait Openness to new experiences as this trait has been associated with attitudes toward sex/reproductive strategies (Quintelier et al 2013). …”

Individuals do not always accurately report the forces driving their policy preferences. Such inaccuracy may result from the fact that true justifications are socially undesirable or less persuasive than competing justifications or are unavailable in conscious awareness. Because of the delicate nature of these issues, people may be particularly likely to misstate the reasons for preferences on gay marriage, abortion, abstinence-only education and premarital sex. Advocates on both sides typically justify their preferences in terms of preserving social order, maintaining moral values, or protecting civil liberties, not in terms of their own sexual preferences. Though these are the stated reasons, in empirical tests we find that psychophysiological response to sexual images also may be a significant driver of policy attitudes.

for data sharing. We thank Geoffrey Goodwin for helpful comments on an earlier version of the manuscript.Word count: 2,580 (excluding abstract, tables, and references) Disgust sensitivity and moral judgments 2 Disgust sensitivity and moral judgments 3 AbstractMoral judgments seem related to the emotion disgust. Evolutionary considerations might illuminate the psychological processes underlying this relation. Several studies have noted that individuals who are more disgust sensitive condemn moral violations more strongly.However, this association could result from both disgust sensitivity and moral judgment being correlated with political ideology. To clarify the relationship between disgust sensitivity and moral judgment, we analyzed data from multiple published and unpublished datasets that included the Three-Domain Disgust scale, the Moral Foundations Questionnaire, and a measure of ideology (total N = 2,478). Results showed that associations between disgust sensitivity and moral judgment remained when controlling for ideology. Each of the three types of disgust sensitivity uniquely predicted at least one of the five moral foundations. Moral disgust predicted scores for all moral foundations (largest effect forFairness/reciprocity). Sexual disgust predicted scores for all moral foundations except Fairness/reciprocity (largest effect for Purity/sanctity). Pathogen disgust had small predictive effects for Ingroup/loyalty, Authority/respect, and Purity/sanctity. All effects were positive (i.e., higher levels of disgust sensitivity were associated with greater moral foundation endorsement). These findings suggest specific relations between disgust sensitivity and moral judgment that are not explained by ideology, shedding further light on the functions of disgust and morality.
