Details

This is an end-of-project workshop arising from a two-year study entitled "Framing Effects in Ethical Dilemmas" in which Natalie Gold, Andrew Colman, and Briony Pulford investigated contextual factors affecting moral decisions. The project included a series of experiments in which trolley problems and related ethical dilemmas were presented to people in contexts that were systematically varied to throw light on factors affecting their responses. Experiments included both hypothetical questions and incentivised choices, of the kind associated with experimental economics.

In conjunction with AHRC Framing Effects in Ethical Dilemmas project.

The workshop fee is £35 (£30 for students and the unwaged). It is also possible to register for just one day for £20 (no discounts available). For late registration, after April 20th, there will be a surcharge of £5. The workshop dinner will cost £40. 

Registration is done by going through the King's on-line store, where you can make payments for both the workshop registration and the dinner:
