This meta-analysis examined the relationship between moral identity and moral emotions drawing on 57 independent studies. Moral identity was significantly associated with moral emotions, r = .32, p < .01, 95% confidence interval [CI: .27, .36]. Effect sizes were moderated by the type of moral emotion. Studies reporting other-regarding emotions (sympathy, empathy, and compassion) had the largest effect sizes (r = .41), while negative other-evaluative emotions (moral anger, contempt, and disgust) had the smallest (r = .16). Self-evaluative and other-evaluative positive emotions had intermediate effect sizes (r values between .29 and .32). The type of emotion measure also was a significant moderator, with trait measures of emotion (r = .38) correlating more strongly with moral identity than state measures (r = .24). Effect sizes did not differ for the type of moral identity measure being used, publication status, or cultural origin of the study sample. The results of this meta-analysis demonstrate a robust empirical connection between moral identity and moral emotions, which confirms the multifaceted role of moral identity in moral functioning.

将道德认同与道德情感联系起来：一项荟萃分析

这项荟萃分析基于57项独立研究，考察了道德认同与道德情感之间的关系。道德认同与道德情感显着相关，r = .32，p <.01，95％置信区间[CI：.27，.36]。效果大小由道德情感的类型调节。报道其他相关情绪（同情，同情和同情心）的研究具有最大的影响力（r = 0.41），而其他评价负面情绪（道德愤怒，蔑视和厌恶）的影响最小（r = .16） 。自我评价和其他评价的积极情绪具有中等程度的影响（r值介于0.29和0.32之间）。情感量度的类型也是重要的调节器，情感特质量度（r = .38）与道德认同比状态量度（r = .24）更紧密。对于所使用的道德认同测量的类型，出版状态或研究样本的文化渊源，影响大小没有差异。这项荟萃分析的结果表明，道德认同与道德情感之间存在牢固的经验联系，这证实了道德认同在道德运作中的多方面作用。
