“…Whereas prior research has identified several differences in cognitive processes associated with core disgust and moral disgust (Abitan & Krauth-Gruber, 2015; Simpson et al, 2006), there has not been a systematic attempt to study the implication of these differences for emotion elicitation and regulation (for an exception, see Simpson et al, 2006). Research has mainly measured different appraisals involved in the elicitation of core and moral disgust (Abitan & Krauth-Gruber, 2015) but has not tested how manipulating such appraisals influences emotion reactivity. Understanding the cognitive processes that are involved in the experience of different types of disgust has potential implications for important outcomes, like moral judgment (Eskine et al, 2011; Horberg, Oveis, Keltner, & Cohen, 2009; Schnall et al, 2008; Wisneski & Skitka, 2017), attitudes toward social issues such as LGBT (e.g., Inbar, Pizarro, Knobe, & Bloom, 2009) and genetically modified food (e.g., Scott, Inbar, & Rozin, 2016), and psychopathologies (e.g., Olatunji, Cisler, McKay, & Phillips, 2010).…”
