In moral psychology, several approaches to moral judgments coexist, with sometimes contradictory results for different types of judgments. In the current research, we combine two views of moral judgment into a novel three-input processing model. As a first empirical test of this model, the present research investigates the influence of these three classic inputs (i.e., intent, outcome, and causality) on wrongness and blame judgments as well as their underlying dynamics. This preregistered experiment ( = 145) re-uses an adapted mouse-tracking paradigm to analyze these influences over time. Results on final judgments replicate the effects of intent, outcome, and causality, as well as partial evidence for their interaction effects. Mouse trajectory analysis further refines these interaction effects, including evidence for differential dynamics for blame versus wrongness judgments. However, this study does not reveal clear differential weight for intent and outcome inputs in blame versus wrongness judgments. Discussion focuses on the evidence supporting but also contradicting the proposed three-input processing model and insists on the importance of distinguishing between final judgments and underlying dynamics.
在道德心理学中，存在多种道德判断方法，不同类型的判断有时会得出相互矛盾的结果。在当前研究中，我们将两种道德判断观点结合成一种新颖的三输入加工模型。作为对该模型的首次实证检验，本研究考察了这三种经典输入（即意图、结果和因果关系）对错误性和责备判断的影响及其潜在动态过程。这项预先注册的实验（N = 145）重新采用了一种经过改编的鼠标追踪范式来分析这些随时间变化的影响。最终判断的结果重现了意图、结果和因果关系的影响，以及它们相互作用效应的部分证据。鼠标轨迹分析进一步细化了这些相互作用效应，包括责备判断与错误性判断存在不同动态过程的证据。然而，本研究并未揭示在责备判断与错误性判断中意图和结果输入的明显差异权重。讨论聚焦于支持和反驳所提出的三输入加工模型的证据，并强调区分最终判断和潜在动态过程的重要性。
