Posted by Psychology and Neuroscience on June 8, 2020 in General Announcements

Dalhousie University is currently seeking individuals to participate in a study titled "A Study on Moral Reasoning in Hypothetical Situations." There are no limitations to who may participate in the study.

You are invited to participate in a research study conducted by Dr. Sean Mackinnon from the Department of Psychology at Dalhousie University. This study has been reviewed by the Dalhousie Social Sciences and Humanities Research Ethics Board (ethics approval #2019-4751 & #2020-5114).

In this experiment, you will be presented to a series of reasoning problems and a couple of standard questionnaires about cultural orientation, demographic situation and religion.  The survey can be completed online at home. Completing the questionnaires will take about 15 minutes in total.

All participants will be entered into a raffle to win a $50 Amazon gift certificate. That is, one of the approximately 200 participants in the study chosen at random will win a $50 gift certificate. Students eligible to receive bonus points from the Participant Pool in the Department of Psychology at Dalhousie University will also receive 0.5 credits for participating.
