Science, Faith and the Moral Maze
Prof. David Cook : Course
6.5 Do our answers depend on who the groups are? Finally, perhaps our intuition about how to deal democratically with country Y depends on who we think the As, Bs and Cs are. Consider three possibilities: (i) A is the UK, B is Scotland, C is the Shetland Islands (ii) A is the EU, B is the UK, C is Scotland (iii) A is a world government, B is the EU, C is France. Does your intuition about the rights of communities A, B and C shift from case to case

2.3.1 Behaviour First, for many decades, ‘behaviour’ has provided the most dominant kind of evidence – what people and animals can be seen to do. Behaviour can cover a very wide range of activities. Think about examples such as a rat finding its way through a maze to a pellet of food, a participant in a memory experiment writing down words five minutes after having done a memorising task, a small group of children who are observed whilst they, jointly, use a computer to solve a problem, a teenager
