For example, imagine that in the survey conducted above 80 people where interviewed and 35 were democrat, 24 republican, 12 libertarian, and 9 chose another party.

  • Relative frequency (republicans)= 24/80= 0.3 = 30% of the participants
  • Relative frequency (libertarians)= 12/80= 0.15 = 15% of the participants

Explain the ""Principle of Double Effect"" and give an example that illustrates how it applies in a real-life situation.
Darya [45]

Answer&Explanation:

This principle refers to those action which are legally permitted but are also likely to result to severe impact which wasn't initially intended like the death of a person as a side effect of the good action that was actual intended.

For example a doctor may give a patient some pills to relieve stress symptoms eventhough the doctor knows that this may have side effect such as actual shortening their life.

The doctor's intention are not to kill the patient but the death would be a side effect of the good results which are to reduce the patient's pain.

Another example is in the warfare where soldiers may go on a mission that requires that what ever action they take few civilian may get hurt in the process but the intention isn't to kill those civilian but it is a side effects of the good operation of eliminating the legitimate target which may be a threat to a country.
