Moral-value perception occurs when sensory perception is directed by cognitive schemas, which selectively sample information in objects and events that represent personally valued means or ends. As a result of the perception of such value representations people experience affect ranging from strongly negative to strongly positive. If one's schemas direct attention to elements of objects or actions that verify schematic expectations, and spark little of no noticeable affect, the new information automatically produces minor alterations of the schema. However, if attention is directed or drawn to information that produces strong affect, and is contradictory of activated schemas, one is likely to engage in conscious assessment, through which the information is re-conceptualized in a way that preserves schematic integrity. Based on multidisciplinary analysis, this paper (1) addresses the ways in which the perception of things within the natural world are represented in moral-value perceptions, (2) identifies important cognitive, affective and emotional processes involved in the ongoing experience of such perception, and (3) illustrates some of the ways in which moral-value perceptions influence moral assessments and judgements.

迈向道德价值感知的综合模型

当感官知觉由认知图式引导时，道德价值知觉就会发生，认知图式有选择地对代表个人价值手段或目的的对象和事件中的信息进行采样。作为对这种价值表征的感知的结果，人们体验到从强烈消极到强烈积极的影响。如果一个人的图式将注意力集中在验证图式预期的对象或动作的元素上，并且几乎不会产生明显的影响，那么新信息会自动对图式产生微小的改变。然而，如果注意力被引导或吸引到产生强烈影响的信息上，并且与激活的图式相矛盾，人们可能会进行有意识的评估，通过这种评估，信息以一种保持图式完整性的方式重新概念化。
