16 grudnia 2021: Seminarium badawcze - Dariusz Miękisz: Can antidepressants alter your moral senses?
Interdyscyplinarne Centrum Etyki UJ (INCET) zaprasza na kolejne seminarium badawcze w ramach projektu BIOUNCERTAINTY. Spotkanie odbędzie się w czwartek 16 grudnia o godzinie 18:30 w sali 25 w Instytucie Filozofii przy ulicy Grodzkiej 52 w Krakowie oraz na platformie MS Teams (link w opisie).
Abstrakt: The studies done so far have shown that a single dose of an SSRI (serotoninergic antidepressant) can make people more altruistic and increase their harm aversion tendency. In this talk, I’ll outline the plan of my research in which the “moral effects” of long-term SSRI treatment will be measured. According to my hypothesis, they can be significantly different than (maybe even opposite of) the effect of a single dose. Learning how antidepressants alter moral choices can tell us something about those drugs themselves, but also can help us discriminate between rival metaethical theories that describe the source of moral judgment (dual-process vs. sentimentalist theories).
