    Abstract: The purpose of this research was to develop a psychometric measure of moral agency and explore its relationship with related moral constructs. Although our legal system, daily interactions with others, and most theories about moral psychology assume moral agency, few researchers have studied it, and there is no instrument devised to specifically measure it. Here, we present the Moral Agency Scale (MAS), a self-report instrument designed to assess the extent to which participants feel control over their moral choices. In Study 1, the MAS demonstrated strict factorial invariance; validity is further supported by its relations to similar constructs and reported volunteering behavior. In Study 2, MAS scores were associated with free will beliefs, moral disengagement, and judgments of moral blame. Results are discussed with reference to theory and future directions for research.

Culture, Gender, and Relationships. In: Journal of Applied Social Psychology 34 (8), S. 1587-1603. DOI: 10.1111/j.1559-1816.2004.tb02788.x

    Abstract: From a social cognitive perspective on anger, the structure of perceived norm violations and their relationships with anger were examined. 884 university students from 4 countries (United States, Germany, Japan, and Hong Kong) were asked to rate their experiences of being harmed in terms of norm violations, angry feelings, blame, and relationship with the harm doers. Two culturally common dimensions in perceived norm violations (informal interpersonal norms and formal societal norms) were found, and these dimensions substantially increased both angry feelings and blame in almost all cultural groups. The violation of interpersonal norms generally evoked anger more frequently than that of societal norms, but there were interactions between culture and relationship closeness and between gender and relationship closeness. zitiert von 58
