Virtue Ethics
Centers moral character, practical wisdom, and the activities that constitute a flourishing life. Good judgment develops through practices and relationships, not only through applying rules to isolated acts.
Foundational doctrines
- Moral character
- Practical wisdom
- Human flourishing
Disagreement and variation
Virtue ethicists disagree about flourishing and the unity of virtues; the core questionnaire does not independently measure this framework well enough for a numerical identity label. Not classifiable from the ten bipolar axes. Requires direct virtue-oriented items; the empty vector is deliberate, not a neutral position.
Numerical positions in the interactive model are editorial reference estimates, not scientifically validated measurements.
