Researchers: 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. To 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. Question For each of the following statements about the respondents to the survey, select Yes if it accurately reflects the information provided. Otherwise, select No.
• Yes No The majority of philosophers who responded to the survey were ethicists.
• Yes No The majority of people who responded to the survey were not ethicists.
• Yes No The majority of people who responded to the survey were philosophers.
• Yes No The majority of philosophers who responded to the survey were ethicists.
• Yes No The majority of people who responded to the survey were not ethicists.
• Yes No The majority of people who responded to the survey were philosophers.
