Morality and Disgust: Experiment 2

The second experiment asked participants how they felt about 7 different groups of people. Prostitutes, homosexuals, voyeurists, and necrophiliacs were meant to represent different degrees of violation of sexual bodily norms. Activist feminists, Islamic religious fundamentalists, and crooked politicians represented things that strayed from norms that did not involve the body. Participants were randomly assigned to either anger or disgust, meaning they were shown images depicting anger or disgust from the first experiment and asked to rate how intense their feelings of anger or disgust were to each group on a 9 point scale.
