The Psychology of Moral Disengagement

SUPPORT our missing to bring engaging video lessons into classrooms!👩🏽‍🎓👨🏻‍🎓: https://www.patreon.com/sprouts

Moral disengagement is a process of cognitive restructuring that allows individuals to disassociate from their internal moral standards and behave unethically without feeling distressed. It is the story we tell ourselves to not feel bad about inhumane actions that normally would go against our moral principles, or the excuses we find to avoid feeling guilty about hurting others.
