What is the Trolley Problem in philosophy?
Devised by British philosopher Philippa Foot in 1967 and expanded by Judith Jarvis Thomson, the Trolley Problem is a thought experiment exploring ethical tensions between Utilitarianism (maximizing total well-being / minimum deaths) and Deontology (the moral duty not to directly cause harm).
How does this interactive version score my moral alignment?
Across 10 distinct moral dilemmas, the game measures your propensity for action vs inaction, rights-based duties vs utilitarian outcomes, and produces an overarching ethical profile (e.g., Pure Utilitarian, Kantian Deontologist, Absurdist Nihilist).
Are the simulated percentages based on real studies?
Yes! The percentages mirror real-world empirical moral psychology studies conducted by Harvard University, MIT Moral Machine, and philosophical survey benchmarks.
Are my choices saved privately?
