| May 29, 2012 at 4:06 | comment | added | Keegan Keplinger | "The results of four experiments support the hypothesis that mental time travel is more prototypical in the future tense than in the past tense. That is, prospection more than retrospection is grounded in scripts, schemas, stereotypes, and other prototypical mental representations of what people, places, and events are typically like." -JOANNE KANE, LEAF VAN BOVEN* AND A. PETER MCGRAW (2012) Prototypical prospection: future events are more prototypically represented and simulated than past events. European Journal of Social Psychology Volume 42, Issue 3. | |
| May 28, 2012 at 23:33 | comment | added | Keegan Keplinger | I suggested prototypical prospection as an answer, but took the suggestion to make it a comment instead. I just recently gained commenting privileges. My thinking is that protoypical prospection means you prototype your feelings/judgments about an experience through prosepction, which seems to be the definition the OP wants a word for. | |

| May 28, 2012 at 7:44 | comment | added | 0x90 | @Jake -> See above for egocentrism. I wouldn't say it is focussed on moral judgements albeit they are included. The important difference is that all people identifying with this approach had no problem understanding other peoples' decisions. To the contrary, they found it easy running on the assumption that everyone else simply simulated the results of the moral choice for their own environment. This clashes with the basic assumption of egocentrism that the egocentric is unable to see past his/her limited environment. | |
| May 28, 2012 at 7:42 | comment | added | 0x90 | @H.Muster -> Egocentrism from my understanding is defined by the individual's inability to understand he/she is being egocentric and thus being unable to simulate the same setting in the context of a different person. This is explicitly not the case as the people tested were able to understand choices made by others when "putting themselves in their shoes". | |

| May 25, 2012 at 21:41 | comment | added | John Pick | @H.Muster You're right: Egocentrism. You should provide it as the answer. | |
| May 25, 2012 at 18:58 | comment | added | Jake Westfall | My first thought after reading the title was that it related to the literature on egocentric judgment, but after reading the full question, it seems to be more about moral judgments in particular, which that literature has not focused on as much. Is it accurate to say that what you are interested in is judgments from the moral domain? | |

| May 25, 2012 at 9:44 | comment | added | H.Muster | Especially your second example sounds a lot like egocentrism (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egocentrism) | |
| May 25, 2012 at 8:59 | comment | added | 0x90 | I apologize for the confusing term "experiment". They do not hold up to scientific scrutiny and are thus not a true "experiment" in the scientific sense. I requested 7 people (3 male, 4 female) to make a judgement on a general rule (various rules). Afterwards, I asked each person to trace the process of his/her decision-making. All had issues with this process. When presented with the theory above, 3 out of 7 (1 male, 2 female) agreed that this matched their decision making process - thus my assumption that I'm dealing with a common and perhaps already scientifically examined phenomena. | |
| May 25, 2012 at 8:14 | comment | added | Jeromy Anglim | Just checking, when you say "experiment", are you saying that you've actually run this experiment and obtained certain results? If so, you might want to say a little bit more about your procedure and results. | |
| May 25, 2012 at 8:10 | comment | added | 0x90 | Yes, that would sum it up nicely in social contexts. However I am observing it as a subconscious routine that several (albeit by far not all) people exposed to experiment are able to recognize in their own decision making and which was unconscious before. | |
| May 25, 2012 at 8:02 | comment | added | Jeromy Anglim | So individuals accept the application of a general rule based on whether the general rule at least partially benefits themselves? It sounds a bit like a version of utilitarian morality with a dash of self-interest and rationalisation. | |
