Survey for philosophy PhDs only on moral decision-making

Stephanie Brown, a philosophy and psychology double major at Williams College, is "completing a psychology senior thesis on moral psychology, and one of the areas we are studying is how familiarity with philosophy impacts moral decision making." She, and her supervisor Professor Jeremy Cone, would like philosophy PhDs to respond to the following survey (Prof. Cone confirms all IRB requirements have been met).

This survey takes 3-5 minutes, and completing the survey provides you with a 5% chance of winning a 100 dollar Amazon gift card. We would greatly appreciate your help by participating in this survey, as I am sure you can understand how difficult it is to find individuals with philosophical expertise. We are ultimately looking for 100 people to complete this survey
