Experimental philosophical bioethics and normative inference Earp, Brian D. Rodríguez Hannikainen, Ivar Allan Experimental philosophy Empirical bioethics Experimental philosophical bioethics Normative inference Moral judgment We are immensely grateful to Joshua Knobe for his dedication to this project, as well as his support, guidance, and invaluable comments and suggestions during the writing process. We also gratefully acknowledge the respective contributions of the two anonymous reviewers, and we wish to thank Katelyn MacDougald for doing such a stellar job editing the manuscript as well as Kristien Hens and Andreas De Block for inviting us to contribute to this special issue. This paper explores an emerging sub-field of both empirical bioethics and experimental philosophy, which has been called “experimental philosophical bioethics” (bioxphi). 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. 2021-12-10T09:16:32Z 2021-12-10T09:16:32Z 2021-11-17 journal article Earp, B.D...
