In this episode, Dr. Stephanie discusses Moral Foundations Theory with Dr. Amanda, a licensed psychologist from Florida.

It is not a shock to find out that Conservatives and Liberals make moral decisions differently.  Conservatives base their decisions on five moral factors and are guided more by order and tradition, whereas Liberals base decisions on only two moral factors and are guided more by openness. 

Dr. Amanda points out that personality is inherent and influences whether some people are more likely to lean towards the left or the right.   Psychologists and Americans should respect various political leanings in part because it is right to have respect for different personality types - and of course because our Constitution defends the First Amendment Rights of all to have and voice political differences
