A Sensitive and Specific Neural Signature Robustly Predicts Graded Computations of Moral Wrongness

2025-11-25

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p> Humans universally condemn what they see as moral violations, yet the perceived wrongness of distinct moral transgressions varies across individuals, neurodiverse populations, and cultures. We currently do not know how and to what extent the human brain universally computes and translates moral wrongness into subjective, graded moral judgments. Here, we combined fMRI with pattern reco...
