“…Given the results of study 3, it is conceivable that an accompanying mood state could play a role in how a moral dilemma is considered. Previous research by Olejnik and Larue (1980) and Zarinpoush, Cooper, and Moylan (2000) supports this possibility. These two sets of studies investigated the influence of induced mood on scores of moral development.…”

“…The DIT was chosen for study over the subsequent DIT-2 because very little research has addressed how emotional states relate to cognitive developmental indices of moral reasoning and judgment. That which has been located (Olejnik & Larue, 1980;Zarinpoush, Cooper, & Moylan, 2000), however, used the original DIT. Additionally, the DIT has six dilemmas for consideration rather than the DIT-2's five dilemmas.…”

“…For example, using the well-known trolley and footbridge dilemmas, Valdesolo and DeSteno (2006) showed that a manipulation of emotional state (positive in this case) can influence decision making. Zarinpoush et al (2000) studied the role of different incidental mood states in influencing the moral reasoning of college students and found that individuals in a state of positive mood tend to adopt heuristic processing and provide weaker arguments on moral reasoning tasks when compared to individuals in a state of negative mood, who use an elaborate information processing. Connelly et al (2004) report that trait emotions (both negative and positive) have a stronger influence on decision making in ethical situations with interpersonal outcomes as compared to those with organizational outcomes.…”

Anger Strays, Fear Refrains: The Differential Effect of Negative Emotions on Consumers’ Ethical Judgments

Although various factors have been studied for their influence on consumers' ethical judgments, the role of incidental emotions has received relatively less attention. Recent research in consumer behavior has focused on studying the effect of specific incidental emotions on various aspects of consumer decision making. This paper investigates the effect of two negative, incidental emotional states of anger and fear on ethical judgment in a consumer context using a passive unethical behavior scenario (i.e., too much change received). The paper presents two experimental studies. Study 1 focuses on the interaction of moral intensity (amount of change) and incidental emotion state in predicting the ethical judgment while study 2 investigates the underlying causal mechanism behind the process, using a mediation analysis. The results reveal a significant interaction between moral intensity and incidental emotion. Specifically, individuals in the state of incidental fear exhibit higher levels of ethical judgment as the moral intensity increases as compared to individuals in the state of incidental anger. Further, perceived control is found to mediate the relationship between emotional state and ethical judgment under higher moral intensity condition.

“…O interesse pela indução de afectos (estados de espírito ou emoções específicas) 1 tem residido fundamentalmente na compreensão dos efeitos que diferentes estados afectivos tendem a exercer nos mais variados processos cognitivos (e.g., memória; tomada de decisão; julgamentos sociais; raciocínio moral) (e.g., Bower, 1981;Forgas, 1994;Isen, 1993;Zarinpoush, Cooper, & Moylan, 2000), comportamentais (e.g., Rucker & Petty, 2004) e emocionais (e.g., Altenmüller, Schürmann, Lim, Parlitz, 2002;Ottowitz, Dougherty, Sirota, Niaura, Rauch, & Brown, 2004;Stemmler, Heldmann, Pauls, & Scherer, 2004). Estes efeitos podem ainda ocorrer a nível não consciente, i.e., sem que os indivíduos tenham consciência da sua influência (e.g., Hansen, 1989).…”
