As an empirical discipline, bioxphi adopts the methods of experimental moral psychology and cognitive science; it does so to make sense of the eliciting factors and underlying cognitive processes that shape people’s moral judgments, particularly about real-world matters of bioethical concern. Yet, as a normative discipline situated within the broader field of bioethics, it also aims to contribute to substantive ethical questions about what should be done in a given context. What are some of the ways in which this aim has been pursued? In this paper, we employ a case study approach to examine and critically evaluate four strategies from the recent literature by which scholars in bioxphi have leveraged empirical data in the service of normative arguments.}, publisher = {Springer}, keywords = {Experimental philosophy}, keywords = {Empirical bioethics}, keywords = {Experimental philosophical bioethics}, keywords = {Normative inference}, keywords = {Moral judgment}, title = {Experimental philosophical bioethics and normative inference}, doi = {10.1007/s11017-021-09546-z}, author = {Earp, Brian D. and Rodríguez Hannikainen, Ivar Allan}, }
