“…For instance, managerial and organizational practices, political processes and personal relationships between patients and healthcare providers may hinder or promote trust within health systems (Gilson, 2006). In the context of health crises, trust in health systems and authorities gains importance as a requisite for compliance with policies and measures and, therefore, for the effective management of the situation (Everett et al, 2021).…”

Background The COVID-19 pandemic has had profound consequences for the world’s population, particularly for vulnerable groups like migrants who face barriers to healthcare access. Trust in authorities is crucial to any crisis management strategy implemented by a government. However, trust in authorities is linked to trust in other areas of life and it evolves during a crisis. This study explores migrants’ trust in the Norwegian government’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods We conducted semi-structured interviews from April to May 2020 with migrants from Somalia (10), Syria (15), Sri Lanka (10), Chile (10) and Poland (10) who were living in Norway. Interviews were conducted via telephone and in participants’ mother tongue. Data were analysed thematically using the systematic text condensation method. Results Trust was established at four levels: (i) in the personal sphere, (ii) in Norwegian society in general, (iii) in the Norwegian authorities’ management of the pandemic, and (iv) in the transnational sphere. Trust was deeply rooted in relationships with individuals, groups and entities, across countries. High trust in authorities emerged in the accounts of participants who felt they were taken care of in the diverse relationships they established in Norway, particularly during the crisis. Conclusion Pandemics create more vulnerability but also opportunities for trust-building. Trust-building can be fostered through relationships in the host country that provide the foundation for migrants to feel included. Healthcare providers are in a position from which they can nurture trust as they can build relationships with migrants over time.

“…Different from previous work inferring utilitarianism from responses to sacrificial dilemmas, research guided by the two-dimensional model of utilitarian psychology infers endorsement of IH and IB from participants’ agreement with broad ethical statements about key ideas of the two dimensions (Kahane et al, 2018). Previous work using this approach has shown that the two dimensions of utilitarianism show different patterns of correlations with individual-difference measures (Kahane et al, 2018), are affected differently by priming manipulations (Capraro et al, 2019), and have distinct consequences for social perception (Everett et al, 2018, 2021). Moreover, although endorsement of pro-sacrificial harm in moral dilemmas has been found to be positively correlated with IH, moral dilemma judgments were found to be unrelated to IB (Kahane et al, 2018).…”

The Drunk Utilitarian Revisited: Does Alcohol Really Increase Utilitarianism in Moral Judgment?

The “drunk utilitarian” phenomenon suggests that people are more likely to accept harm for the greater good when they are under the influence of alcohol. This phenomenon conflicts with the ideas that (a) acceptance of pro-sacrificial harm requires inhibitory control of automatic emotional responses to the idea of causing harm and (b) alcohol impairs inhibitory control. This preregistered experiment aimed to provide deeper insights into the effects of alcohol on moral judgments by using a formal modeling approach to disentangle three factors in moral dilemma judgments and by distinguishing between instrumental harm and impartial beneficence as two distinct dimensions of utilitarian psychology. Despite the use of a substantially larger sample and higher doses of alcohol compared with the ones in prior studies, alcohol had no significant effect on moral judgments. The results pose a challenge to the idea that alcohol increases utilitarianism in moral judgments.
