Cross-cultural Trolley Papers


Announcement

Theme: Cross-cultural Trolley Papers



I am looking for papers that investigate cross-cultural differences
in responses to trolley problems, i.e., empirical experiments that
compare the responses of people from different cultures to some of
the standard cases. That includes both papers that (a) explicitly
compare judgments across cultures on a single scenario, or (b) look
for differences in choices between two standard trolley scenarios for
a non-WEIRD population. I am interested in both published and
unpublished studies.

The full list of papers I have found so far is below. If you know of
anything that is not listed, would you be able to send it to me?

The last two items on my list are things I am having trouble getting
hold of/ getting hold of in english (Xiang, 2014, and Yamamoto, &
Yuki, 2019). If you have either of them in English and can send them
to me, I’d be very grateful.

Best,
Natalie Gold
