Moral Biases and Decision: Impact of Information System on Moral Biases

摘要

The aim of this work, is to find a better way to understand an information system that take into consideration agent's through moral system, words, image, appeal to culture or religion, in order to correct to some biases observed in polling in France during the same-sex marriage debate. This approach will thus, in diverse and multicultural societies, provide to managers or politicians with a better definition of problems, to better predict the behavior of individuals when the efficiency of the decision taken and the possible opposition it can generate. In this way, they can build an information system capable of correcting the deviation from the expectations of agents. We could consider that this component would be the main one in decision-making during the passage of the law. We can then assess the value of this component in the calculation of expected utility as developed by Harsanyi. We can easily show that when the information system is corrected, the actors can then adhere to processes that would be in opposition to their moral principle or religious values due to the fact that in reality the lack of information has caused the appearance of this moral utility in decision-making based in principle on a single dominant component.
