摘要:We replicated the study by Horberg et al. (2009) with Japanese participants. Following their study procedures, we investigated the correspondence of the moral areas with emotions, specifically purity violations with disgust and justice violations with anger. The associations of political conservatism and Socioeconomic Status (SES) with disgust, respectively, were also tested. Unique to this replication study, we explored whether individuals’ motivation to communicate with others was stronger for justice violations than for purity violations. Most of the results were consistent with those of the original study. Our findings contribute to better understanding of the morality-emotion link.
