A perceived moral agency scale: Development and validation of a metric for humans and social machines

作者:

Highlights:

• Machines may be perceived as moral agents, independent of actual moral status.

• Perceived moral agency involves discrete ascription of morality and agency.

• Measurement of morality includes potentials for intuited and reasoned judgment.

• Measurement of agency emerges as assessments of programming dependency.

• Machine morality/dependency are associated with relational perceptions and intent.
