Chapter 1. Introduction and overview. There is an error in Figure 3.3. This is the tree diagram representing Eddy's (1982) medical problem. For the branch representing P(Negative Cancer) the probability should be 0.208, NOT 0.028. Accordingly, the number at the rightmost end of the branch should be 0.0028, NOT 0.00028. This does not affect the answer to the problem stated in the text, which remains 0.077. My thanks to Chloe Turner (one of my students) for pointing this out. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Chapter 15. Intuition, reflection, and the brain. Thursday, 21 January 2010. How ethical are ethicists? Much recent research conducted by psychologists on the topic of moral judgment has examined the role of intuitions, specifically emotion-driven intuitions, as drivers of judgment. Reasoning is hypothesised to play little role in moral judgement, except to rationalise what has already been decided. But what about people who study ethics for a living? Do they learn to behave in a more ethical fashion?
