Cell entries show ordinary least-squares coefficients for the Moral Foundation Questionnaire (MFQ, top) and Moral Foundations Sacredness Scale (MFSS, bottom) foundations predicting MFV scales. All scales are standardized. The largest coefficient in each row is bolded. Note that there are no existing criterion variables for the Liberty foundation. “Care (e)” refers to the emotional harm factor, and “Care (p)” refers to the physical harm factor.
