Definición

  • Noncognitivists maintain that moral judgments are more appropriately viewed as expressions of attitudes, preferences, or desires rather than propositional claims about factual states of affairs. They typically subscribe to two related notions: First, moral statements are linguistically incapable of being true or false, and second, psychologically speaking, moral judgments are not reports of belief but indicators of other affective states of mind.
