Research on Predictors and Influence of Moral Behavior

Abstract

Moral behavior is generally defined as behavior that conforms to (or is based on) generally accepted norms of moral behavior. Moral behavior includes many types of behavior, including prosocial or altruistic behavior. This study discusses the predictors of moral behavior and their impact in detail. The predictors include moral judgment, moral identity, emotion, family environment, and moral behavior in the past. This study believes that the generation of moral behavior requires a comprehensive consideration of multiple factors; only in this way can moral behavior be explained to the greatest extent. At the same time, this study believes that moral behavior will impact individual and social levels. For the impact of moral behavior, this study takes a positive attitude, believing that morality can positively impact individual emotions and inspire others in society through role models.
