Detail
Human are bound rational that decision making involves a lot hidden premises and illogical mechanisms. In particular, moral decision involves a lot of dilemma and entails consequences in many aspects. Scholars and researchers have reported neural correlates of moral judgments. Some suggested perturbing the decision with brain stimulation techniques to particular regions of human brain. This workshop summarizes recent findings in the field and provides a demonstration to the experimental setup of tDCS commonly used in previous research studies on moral judgement. Research development in this area is blooming due to the emergency of artificial intelligence and raised dilemma of algorithmic morality. Therefore, inputs from interdisciplinary researchers are essential in providing insights and possible solutions to the problem.
