Moral Foundations Test

About Moral Foundations Test

The Moral Foundations Test is based on Jonathan Haidt's Moral Foundations Theory, one of the most influential frameworks in modern moral psychology. This theory proposes that human morality is built on six innate foundations: Care/Harm, Fairness/Cheating, Loyalty/Betrayal, Authority/Subversion, Sanctity/Degradation, and Liberty/Oppression. Everyone possesses all six, but their relative strength varies dramatically from person to person. Understanding your moral foundation profile explains why certain ethical issues trigger you intensely while others barely register. It also illuminates why you find some people's moral reasoning incomprehensible. This test maps your unique moral architecture so you can engage more thoughtfully with ethical disagreements.
