Researchers Presented Participants with Two Versions of a Moral Dilemma

Researchers presented participants with two versions of a moral dilemma. In the trolley dilemma, you can save the life of five people but take the life of one person by flipping a switch. In the footbridge dilemma, you can save the life of five people but take the life of one person by pushing a fat man off a bridge. According to the research, what do most people decide?

A) Because the two dilemmas are logically the same, people make the same choice (kill one and save five) with equal ease in both cases.
B) Although the two dilemmas are logically the same, people have a more difficult time deciding what to do in the footbridge dilemma.
C) Although the two dilemmas are logically the same, people have a more difficult time deciding what to do in the trolley dilemma.
D) Because the two dilemmas are logically the same, people quickly decide in both cases they have no right to interfere in the situation and allow the five people to die.
