Introduction to Ethics: Understanding Right and Wrong

Corrected by Emir Baycan · on When Notes Fly · 29 July 2026 · View published page ↗

Ethics examines moral actions through frameworks like consequentialism, deontology, and virtue ethics to navigate right and wrong.

Factually incorrect

What was corrected

What the page claimed

Article attributed a real, accurately-described study to the wrong university, confusing two similarly named but separate Amsterdam institutions.

What was corrected

Corrected the institutional attribution to the real VU Amsterdam/NSCR affiliation while preserving the accurate statistics.

Why this is better

This article was otherwise unusually clean: Milgram's 65 percent obedience finding, the Darley-Latane bystander effect figures, Zimbardo's Stanford Prison Experiment, and the Alsan and Wanamaker 2018 QJE Tuskegee study all verified as accurate and correctly cited.
