Subject: FYI, Recent Nature paper & NYT Piece on Why Moral Outrage is often Disproportionate Jeff, I thoug=t you may be interested in this recent nature publication of ours, or our c=rresponding write up in the nytimes: https://www.dropbox.com/s/sz8c4ujuSuk356w/Jordan%20et%2=al%2IY3628in%20press%29%20Nature.pdf?dl=0 http://ww=.nytimes.com/2016/02/28/opinion/sunday/whats-the-point-of-moral-outrage.htm=?smid=tw- nytopinion&smtyp=curtr=0 The basic idea is that moral outrage is often, subconsciously at least, m=tivated by trying to signal ones own values. And this motivation won't be s=nsitive to whether the transgression was intended or whether punishment is p=oportionate or good for the cause. Happy to d=scuss next time we meet, if you are interested. -Moshe 1 EFTA_R1_00153010 EFTA01805844
