In the United States, for example, public discussions around whether to reopen schools and the economy versus remain in lockdown highlighted tensions between utilitarian approaches and other ethical principles, with some leaders stressing an imperative to remain in lockdown to prevent deaths from COVID-19 (consistent with deontological principles) but others arguing that lockdown also has costs and these need to be weighed against the costs of pandemic-related deaths (consistent with utilitarian principles; Supplementary Note 2). -, Peterson A, Largent EA, Karlawish J. Worse than pushing us apart, they can bring out the sublimely ugly.

Nurses and other health and emergency workers are suffering physical and emotional stress, and moral distress from conflicting professional values. The COVID-19 pandemic has raised a host of ethical challenges, but key among these has been the possibility that health care systems might need to ration scarce critical care resources. Fifth, and finally, it could be interesting to explore further the connection between impartial beneficence and intergroup psychology, especially with regards to teasing apart impartiality and beneficence. Accessibility This analysis, however, does not take into account the covariates specified in the models. By measuring preferences for a leader who was responsible for a groups donations to help those in need, the voting task captures trust in leaders in a specific context that is highly relevant to our central research question: during a health crisis, effective leadership requires responsible stewardship of public resources to help those in need. and W.J.B.

To examine participants trust in the leaders as demonstrated by their voting behaviour, we fitted a generalized linear mixed-effects model with the logit link of the effect of dimension type (instrumental harm versus impartial beneficence) on leader choice in the voting task (utilitarian versus non-utilitarian), adding demographic variables (gender, age, education, subjective SES, political ideology and religiosity) and policy support as fixed effects and dilemmas and countries as random intercepts, with participants nested within countries (for details, see Analysis plan for hypothesis testing).
