    Challenges→Virtual reality and game-like experiences can be intentionally designed to positively influence viewers' moral attitudes toward contested social issues.

    Aristotle's account of moral habituation requires repeated real-world action and practical wisdom, neither of which designed virtual experiences can reliably produce.

    Reasons For

    1 perspective
    Reason for
    ?

      ?

      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 3.Practical wisdom requires perceiving particular circumstances and responding with judgment that only emerges through accumulated real-world experience.

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    Reasons Against

    1 perspective
    Reason against
    ?
    • 1.Neural and behavioral habituation may occur similarly in virtual environments if they trigger genuine emotional and cognitive responses.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 2.Designed virtual experiences can embed realistic consequences, stakeholder relationships, and novel dilemmas that scaffold practical wisdom development.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 3.If Aristotle's account requires only repeated practice with appropriate feedback and reflection, virtual simulations can satisfy these conditions effectively.
