What is source of the moral intuitions and values that underlie these norms?<\/p>\n<p>How do moral judgments interact in development with the key intuitions and principles of &#8216;theory of mind?&#8217; To what extent does development of the two domains rely on domain general versus domain specific learning?<\/p>\n<p>Through a series of thematic sessions, participants will engage in inter-disciplinary discussions.
