ᅠᅠResearchers: Ethicists (philosophers of ethics) devote their careers to reflecting on morality and presumably care deeply about it. Moral reflection tends to promote moral behavior, and ethicists tend to be both more prone to and more skilled at moral reflection than non-ethicists. Given that the philosophical ethical theories of ethicists broadly agree with widely accepted moral standards, we expect that ethicists would tend to be better behaved than non-ethicists with regard to widely accepted moral standards.
ᅠᅠTo test this expectation we conducted a survey of attendees of a philosophical conference to assess whether people who have contact with ethicists believe that ethicists are, indeed, particularly well-behaved with regard to widely accepted moral standards. The attendees—each among exactly one of the categories of ethicist, other philosophers (non-ethicists), and non-academics—were asked to evaluate the moral behavior of ethicists as compared to that of other philosophers and non-academics.

Q2
We are asked about what ethicists would rate, so go to Results tab and consider row where respondent group is Ethicists
They rate ethicists, on average, as better morally behaved than non-academics. --> YES (Given 3.1 rating, better)
They rate non-academics, on average, as better morally behaved than other philosophers. --> NO (Can't say as we are given data comparing ethicist vs others, not non-academic vs other philosophers)
They rate ethicists, on average, as better morally behaved than other philosophers. --> YES (Given 3.4 rating, better)
