Untangling knowledge fields and knowledge dynamics within the decision-making process
2020
PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to analyse the influences of different types of knowledge and their inherent dynamics on the effectiveness of the decision-making (DM) process. Knowledge dynamics (KD) is envisioned through the lens of the knowledge fields theory while effective DM process is objectivised via organisational appreciation and reward, higher business performance, sustainable partnerships and managerial satisfaction with previous achievements.Design/methodology/approachA questionnaire-based survey was conducted with 275 middle managers from companies operating in the business consulting field. The conceptual and structural model was tested using the partial least squares stru…
Relation between Social Conservatism, Moral Competence, Moral Orientations, and the Importance of Moral Foundations
2017
AbstractThis paper examines the relation between moral competence, moral orientations, importance of moral foundations, and political orientation, by combining two theoretical approaches in moral psychology--the cognitive perspective and social-intuitionist perspective. The participants (Study 1 N=348, aged 18 to 67, and Study 2 N = 361, aged 16 to 74) completed the Moral Competence Test (formerly Moral Judgment Test, Lind, 1978, 2008), the 30-Item Full Version of the Moral Foundations Questionnaire (Graham, Haidt & Nosek, 2008), and measurements of political orientation (a seven-point self-evaluation scale in study 1 and an 8-item social conservatism scale in Study 2). There was a nega…
Intuition and meaning. The Husserlian doctrine of intuitive sense in the contemporary field of reflection
1999
Intuition, verstanden als analoge, nicht-diskursive Darstellungsweise, ist bei Husserl seit jeher klar vom symbolischen Denken in der Sprachproduktion abgegrenzt. Anfänglich abhängig vom symbolischen Denken, das bis zu den Logische Untersuchungen als einziges Sinnvehikel erscheint, gewinnt die Intuition aus Ideen allmählich einen Grundwert und eine Autonomie des Funktionierens und wird zum Ort der Wahl einer bestimmten Bedeutung. Daher wird eine Theorie der intuitiven Sinn konstruiert, die vom Fregeenschen Bedeutungsmodell befreit ist, trotz Husserls Zurückhaltung, alle ihre Implikationen zuzugeben. Die Analyse dieser Theorie erfolgt parallel zur zeitgenössischen Kognitionsforschung, in der…
¿Por qué conservamos la biodiversidad? Un breve recorrido sociológico, psicológico y moral
2017
espanolEn este trabajo se muestran, de manera muy sucinta, algunos conceptos fundamentales sobre los valores que subyacen en la toma de las decisiones sobre la conservacion de la biodiversidad, asi como las bases psicologicas de la deliberacion en este contexto. Para ello, se describe, en primer lugar, un modelo sociologico clasico que ayuda a predecir la asignacion de recursos para la conservacion, basado en la construccion social y el poder “politico” oculto de las diferentes especies. En segundo lugar, se vincula dicho modelo con la taxonomia de valores subyacentes (no necesariamente excluyentes). Finalmente, se discute la base psicologica de la deliberacion valorativa a partir de la teo…
Introduction by the Editors

Kohlberg’s approach to moral development and moral education continues to stimulate researchers and educators worldwide. His work still offers knowledge, methods and inspirations for understanding moral cognition and behavior, and how to foster it. This volume examines aspects of Kohlberg’s moral stage developmental theory and his theory of moral education to revisit their strengths and weaknesses in light of new questions and methods.

Evidence//Intuibility
2020
The concept of evidence is implied by distinct kinds of cognitive and reasoning processes carried out in ordinary experience or in specialized domains of knowledge, like science, philosophy, logic and mathematics. Theories have been developed along three orthogonal axes. Along the first axis, theories are located according to their view on evidence as a necessary and sufficient condition for knowledge. Along the second axis, theories are located according to the cognitive characterization of evidence. On the third axis, theories are distinguished by the individuation of the bearers of evidence.
(φ, ψ)-weak contractions in intuitionistic fuzzy metric spaces
2014
The purpose of this paper is to extend the notion of (phi,psi)-weak contraction to intuitionistic fuzzy metric spaces, by using an altering distance function. We obtain common fixed point results in intuitionistic fuzzy metric spaces, which generalize several known results from the literature.
