By: Contributor(s): Material type: TextTextPublication details: 2023Subject(s): In: Armed Forces & Society Vol. 49, No. 3, July 2023, pp.593-611 (3)Summary: Military ethics training has tended to focus on imparting ethical attitudes and on improving deliberative moral decision-making through classroom instruction. However, military personnel can be exposed to extreme conditions on operations, which can lead to heat-of-the-moment thinking. Under stress, individuals are more likely to engage in automatic processing than deliberative processing, and visceral states such as anger and disgust can increase a person's risk of behaving unethically.
