Dioptra: An Ethics Decision Support System
نویسنده
چکیده
Ethical decision making is difficult. Decision makers with cognitive, emotional, social, and philosophical limits have incomplete information about ambiguous, dynamic situations, where the consequences of action are uncertain. This paper describes Dioptra, a decision support system that can help people become more effective ethical decision makers. Dioptra adds structure to the decision process, supports various communication modes from face-to-face to fully distributed teams, helps DMs avoid cognitive and other biases, and addresses dysfunctional group behavior. Dioptra is a flexible system, potentially useful for many other applications besides ethical decision support. However, Dioptra is intended to be used by mindful people in organizations with an ethical culture. The system will be of limited use if these conditions are not met.
