Details

This dataset contains data from a recent study about how people judge behavior of others when they unintentionally or intentionally cause harm to others.

Participants responded to four different vignettes that contains four different types of conditions-

  • accidental harm. neutral belief, harmful/negative outcome

  • intentional harm. harmful/negative belief, harmful/negative outcome

  • attempted harm. harmful/negative belief, neutral outcome

  • neutral harm. neutral belief, neutral outcome

Additionally, participants saw one of the four variants for each of the four items. Each of the item had a different type of harm.
