Abstract

There is always room for moral improvement. However, very few prior reviews have focused on the phenomenon of moral improvement of self, social relations, or society. We first consider prevailing notions of the self-concept by highlighting the niche of theory and research that identifies an improving self as a possible identity and basis of motivation to act better and to be better. Second, we discuss moral improvement in the context of social relations, especially the close interpersonal relations that should most facilitate moral improvement. Third, we examine the moral improvement of society, focusing on the factors that facilitate or inhibit caring about potential immorality despite the fact that issues such as inequality, discrimination, and the climate crisis seem to be morally distant and impersonal. Finally, we discuss future directions for theory, research, and application.

自我、社会关系和社会的道德改进。
道德上总有进步的空间。然而,很少有先前的评论关注自我、社会关系或社会的道德改善现象。我们首先通过强调理论和研究的利基来考虑自我概念的主流概念,这些理论和研究将改进的自我确定为一种可能的身份和动机,以更好地行动和变得更好。其次,我们在社会关系的背景下讨论道德改进,特别是最有利于道德改进的密切人际关系。第三,我们考察了社会的道德进步,重点关注促进或抑制关心潜在的不道德行为的因素,尽管不平等、歧视和气候危机等问题在道德上显得遥远和客观。最后,我们讨论了未来的理论、研究和应用方向。《心理学年度评论》第75卷预计最终在线出版日期为2024年1月。请参阅http://www.annualreviews.org/page/journal/pubdates用于修订估算。
