vivado [14]

The <u>moral intensity</u> of an issue is higher when the consequences for others are potentially large, the consequences are relatively immediate and likely to occur, and the potential victims are psychologically or physically close to the decision maker.

Moral intensity defines the degree that an individual or people considers or sees or relates an issue as an ethical issue.

Various factors determine this moral intensity like; the magnitude and effect of the consequences, the temporal proximity and immediacy of the consequences and social consensus.

Temporal immediacy defines the interval between the time of action and the occurrence or onset of the consequence which details about when consequences are likely to occur after the action.

Proximity details about how close (psychologically and emotionally) the decision-maker is to the person who can be affected by the decision
