Abstract：
With the rapid development of society and the deteriorating natural environment, there has been an increase in public emergencies. This study aimed to explore how sadness and fear in the context of public emergencies influence moral judgments. This research first induced feelings of sadness and fear by using videos about public emergencies and music, and then used moral scenarios from the CNI model (C parameter: sensitivity to consequences; N parameter: sensitivity to norms; I parameter: general preference for inaction) to assess participants\' moral thinking. In Study 1, participants were divided into a sadness group and a neutral group, while in Study 2, participants were divided into a fear group and a neutral group. During the experiment, participants were exposed to different videos related to public emergencies to induce the corresponding emotions, and emotional music was continuously played throughout the entire experiment. Participants were then asked to answer questions requiring moral judgments. The results showed that based on the CNI model, sadness induced in the context of public emergencies significantly increased the C parameter, without affecting the N or I parameters. Fear increased the I parameter, without affecting the C or I parameters. That is, sadness and fear induced in the context of a public emergency can influence moral judgments. Specifically, sadness increases individuals\' sensitivity to consequences and fear increases the general preference for inaction in moral judgments.
摘要：
随着社会的快速发展和自然环境的日益恶化,公共突发事件有所增加。本研究旨在探讨公共突发事件背景下的悲伤和恐惧如何影响道德判断。这项研究首先通过使用有关公共紧急情况和音乐的视频来诱发悲伤和恐惧的感觉，然后使用CNI模型中的道德情景（C参数：对后果的敏感性；N参数：对规范的敏感性；I参数：对不作为的一般偏好）来评估参与者的道德思维。在研究1中，参与者被分为悲伤组和中立组，而在研究2中,参与者被分为恐惧组和中立组.在实验过程中,参与者接触与公共突发事件相关的不同视频，以诱发相应的情绪，在整个实验过程中不断播放情感音乐。然后要求参与者回答需要道德判断的问题。结果表明,基于CNI模型,在突发公共事件中诱发的悲伤显著增加了C参数，而不影响N或I参数。恐惧增加了I参数，不影响C或I参数。也就是说,在公共紧急情况下引起的悲伤和恐惧会影响道德判断。具体来说,悲伤增加了个人对后果的敏感性，恐惧增加了道德判断中不作为的普遍偏好。
