Blake has developed a new measure of personality to assess what personality type people have. It is called the “Blockbuster Personality Type” measure. The measure includes images from the top ten most popular Hollywood movies in the last ten years and asks respondents to describe what is happening in the scenes. Responses are scored in terms of how consistent they are with the original movies, and how much respondents show empathy for the different characters in the scenes. As a result of this scoring, respondents are classified as either being either “active heroes”, “passive victims”, or “conniving villains”, reflecting the hidden desires and goals that they were born with. Blake wants to encourage people to use the test for selection and recruitment in organisations around the world, so he collects information about the test’s reliability and validity. He asks his first-year psychology class to take the test at the start of semester and at the end of semester and compares their scores for a measure of reliability. To test validity, he uses scores on the test to predict how well his students do in their university studies.

Question: What are some of the issues with what Blake has done? How could he have designed and evaluated his test in a better way? For each issue you identify, explain why it is an issue and how it could be improved.

Psychological egoism is the theory that all human actions are aimed at avoiding some personal loss or gaining some personal benefit. If the theory is true, then altruism—the direct desire to benefit others for their own sake—does not exist. Psychological egoism is a descriptive theory about how people do behave rather than an ethical theory about how they ought to behave. Still, the truth of psychological egoism would have important ethical implications. Because we can’t be morally obligated to do the impossible, the truth of psychological egoism would mean that we cannot be obligated to behave altruistically. Accepting this would require us to substantially revise our ideas about morality.

There are a number of arguments for psychological egoism. One argument begins with the claim that every action is based on the strongest desire of the person performing it. For this to support the theory, however, the egoist must make the case that all of our strongest desires are for personal gain. A second argument claims that people always expect their actions to make them better off.

Ethical egoism is the theory that actions are morally right just because they best promote one’s self-interest. Although psychological egoism is one source of support for ethical egoism, one can consistently accept ethical egoism—the view that we ought to behave self-interestedly—while rejecting psychological egoism—the view that we always do behave in this way. Ethical egoism faces a serious difficulty at the outset: the theory implies that it is morally right to kill, rape, and steal any time these actions would be in our self-interest. These actions seem to be paradigmatic cases of immorality. This doesn’t prove that ethical egoism is false because our conventional ideas about morality could be mistaken. It does suggest, however, that we should accept ethical egoism only if there are strong arguments in its favor.

Egoists have advanced several arguments to support their position. Some claim that everyone would be better off if we were all to behave egoistically. According to egoism, however, the fact that something makes everyone better off is morally irrelevant, so this argument cannot support ethical egoism. Many egoists invoke libertarianism, according to which all of our moral duties derive from the sources of consent and reparation, to support egoism. The egoist cannot consistently accept such a view, however, because ethical egoism is committed to the idea that consent and reparation do not generate obligations—only self-interest can do so. The best argument for ethical egoism claims that if we’re morally required to do something, then we have good reason to do it. Furthermore, we have good reason to do something only if it makes us better off. This latter claim is questionable, however, because there seem to be cases in which we have good reason to do something (say, help a stranger) even if doing so does not benefit us.

Egoism also faces three serious problems. As mentioned before, it violates many widely shared moral beliefs. In addition, it cannot allow for the existence of moral rights that protect us from interference from others. After all, if violating my supposed rights would benefit you, egoism says that you morally ought to do so. Finally, egoism seems to arbitrarily elevate the interests of a single person over everyone else, and it is not clear how to defend such a bias. Given that the main arguments for egoism fail and that the theory suffers serious problems, we seem to be justified in rejecting it.

After reading the above text answer the following.

"What is the relationship between psychological egoism and ethical egoism? Define each theory and explain how they are similar and how they differ. Does accepting one theory commit you to accepting the other? Does rejecting one commit you to rejecting the other? Why or why not?" Write at-least 200 words.
