i love the 'would you kill a young hitler or let the holocaust happen?' that seems to be in those ones
Lol, don't think I've ran into that one yet. I don't get it though because it's usually the exact same scenario in every survey I do. Like are researchers just copying and pasting it or what.

It's a fairly well-known discussion called the Trolley problem and I think they are just establishing moral baselines. It's becoming more prominent with the rise of automated vehicles.

The problem with that is those college students haven't become government workers yet. It always seems anyway that in gov jobs everybody has their own assignment and they better not stray from it. So if you're not the one who is authorized to pull that lever or push that person off that bridge you better just mind your own business or go to prison.

Those unexpected naps can be frightening. Fell back asleep a little while ago and had this weird dream where a space station or city or some floating thing crashed into Earth. There was this crowd watching whatever it was floating above then all of a sudden it dropped then blew up. :eek:

Most of these surveys seem to be about the same issues/subject matters over and over again. I don't know if that's a good thing or bad thing. lol.

Right. I don't know how the whole research thing works but find it weird that so many different places are posting really similar studies. Who knows.
