Which ethical model is primarily concerned with character and moral virtues rather than rules or consequences?
Correct Answer:
Virtue Ethics
Explanation:
The focus is on developing and expressing good character through moral virtues. Virtue ethics asks what kind of person you want to be and whether your actions reflect virtuous traits like honesty, courage, generosity, and integrity. It emphasizes character formation and flourishing, so a decision is judged by whether it a virtuous person would naturally make in that situation. This differs from deontology, which centers on following rules or duties regardless of outcomes, and from consequentialism, which judges actions by their results. Hedonism prioritizes pleasure as the ultimate good rather than character. Because it centers on what kind of person you are and how you cultivate virtuous dispositions, it best fits a model concerned with character and moral virtues.
