7. Morality

7.1. Development

Piaget argued that the idea of morality is developed in certain stage of childhood, just like the understanding of the conservation of volume of water.

Kohlberg divided the development into pre-conventional, conventional, and post-conventional stages. He noticed that conventional rules and moral rules are treated differently.

Turiel developed method to tell apart conventions from moral rules: unalterable, universal. He suggested that the morality is attained on the basis of fairness and harm.

Shweder found that the line between convention and morality differs according to the culture.(Jonathan Haidt, 2012)

In korea, the courtesy is part of the morality.

8. Hyperbolic Discounting

Human perception of the value diminishes as the event moves farther in the future.

The tendency is captured in the hyperbolic discounting formula. \[ V(t) = \frac{V_0}{1+ kt} \] where \( V_0 \) is the actual value, \( k \) is the discount rate parameter, and \( V \) is the perceived value.

9. Defusing Procrastination

We have list of things that is easy to do and we want to do, and list of things that we should do and don't want to do in our working memory.

We do cost-benefit analysis on those things, and choose the next behavior. If the objective is too vague or too consuming the cost outweighs the benefits, and we do not choose to do it. If the benefit is too little we also do not choose to do it.

Find the balance and shift the goal post to your favor.

Do the next best thing [in terms of benefit].

Add those missing middle to your working memory.

Working memory is reset when walking through a door (doorway effect). Reset and build it to your likings.
