🚨 New paper out. What is our shared understanding of dignity in community settings? Can ethics and philosophy benefit from evidence about this? This paper relates our recent empirical work to philosophical theory. www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

Dignity is distinctively concerned with non-humiliation and social equality: integrating philosophical theory with the empirical evidence
Appeals to the value of treating people with dignity are commonplace in certain community settings, especially in health, disability, and aged care. In contrast, dignity has been relatively neglect...

Jakob @hohwy.bsky.social unravels how we understand the mind, cognition, and existence in "The Self-Evidencing Agent," analyzing how human agents perceive and make sense of the world, decide to act, and act of their own volition: bit.ly/4sXomMq
A copy of "The Self-Evidencing Agent: Mind, Existence, and Predictive Processing" by Jakob Howhy on a plain background. The cover features a simple one-line illustration of a profile of a character painting a line that stems from their foot.

In the paper we draw a few tips for avoiding to violate dignity. For example, when our job demands that we give our colleague some negative feedback, the dignified way of doing it is the way that minimises risk that they would feel humiliated, ashamed, and embarrassed.

We also show that offences that targeted physical appearance and potential vulnerabilities (chronic medical conditions, disabilities), were rated as more related to dignity than other offences.

We show that people rated offences that resulted in humiliation, shame, and embarrassment as more related to dignity than those that resulted in anger, and control condition (no emotions specified).

Previous work has shown that people are not able to coherently describe the differences between dignity and respect. In our paper we show that regular people can actually recognise the unique value of dignity in a set of carefully crafted moral vignettes describing one person offending another.

Dignity is a very important ethical concept, but a dangerously fuzzy one, which puts into question whether and how we can honour our obligations to treat people with dignity! Our new study detangles dignity and respect, by showing dignity has specific ties to humiliation.

What does it mean to treat someone with dignity, as opposed to, say, treating them with respect? This experiment successfully tests the philosophical theory that ties dignity specifically to humiliation. With @andrejevic.bsky.social and Linda Barclay #philosophy journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...
