dc.description.abstract | Human morality has been addressed by the neurosciences and neuroethics. However we remain far from realizing how brain works in moral decisions. The decision taken in moral dilemmas can be deontological or utilitarian. In the first one an action is right or wrong for itself, disregarding the consequences of your decision. On the other hand, in utilitarian decisions consequences are the only thing that matters, seeking the best interest to the greatest number of people. This study aims to describe neuronal activity during moral decision-making, thereby contributing both to the location of brain areas involved in this process and for the characterization of neurophysiological changes that take place when moral decisions are made. | pt_PT |
