Article Sidebar
Main Article Content
Abstract
In the present, education and psychology pay attention to the relationship of brain, thought, mind and behavior. This article presents about the mechanisms of human behavior in moral decisions, which is closely related to the structure and the functions of brain, by showing the evidence and findings to understand a person’s moral behavior in the view of neuroscientists as opposed to that of moral philosophers. It does not aim to judge what is right or wrong but to empathize with how people think, make decisions and have behavior, which is caused by the structure and the functions of neo cortical brain and limbic brain. The mechanisms of the brain affect humans’ moral behavior differently, which can help evaluate a person deeply and precisely. The data in this article can be guidelines for education and research applied to boost morality in many aspects.
