Question

question 25
are preferred means of behavior used to obtain ones goals.
a ethical dilemmas
b instrumental values
c ethical relativisms
d terminal values
e normative ethics

Explanation:

• Instrumental values are the preferred means of behavior used to obtain one's goals. For example, values like "honesty" or "responsibility" are instrumental as they guide how one acts to reach a desired end - state.
• Ethical dilemmas are situations where there is a conflict between moral principles, not related to means of behavior.
• Ethical relativisms is a theory about the relativity of moral truths, not about behavior means.
• Terminal values are the end - state goals (e.g., a comfortable life), not the means.
• Normative ethics is a branch of ethics that deals with ethical standards and theories, not the specific means of behavior.

Answer:

B. Instrumental values
