Moral Incongruence and Addiction: A Registered Report. Grubbs, J. B., Floyd, C., Kraus, S. W., Griffin, K., & Jennings, T. L. Psychology of Addictive Behaviors, OSF, 2022. doi abstract bibtex Objectives: Diagnostic criteria for Compulsive Sexual Behavior Disorder (CSBD) specifically note that moral distress related to sexual behavior is not sufficient to receive the diagnosis. At present, CSBD is the only recognized disorder in any diagnostic manual to include such a caveat, pointing to the unique role of morality in shaping feelings of compulsivity in or addiction to sexual behaviors. Even so, recent work has called into the question the uniqueness of moral distress or disapproval in predicting self-reported feelings of behavioral addiction, demonstrating that other so-called addictive behaviors (e.g., gaming and internet use) are well-predicted by moral disapproval of those behaviors and speculating that moral disapproval is likely present in the full spectrum of addictions, both substance and behavioral. Methods: The present work seeks to clarify if moral incongruence (the interaction of behavioral frequency and moral disapproval of a behavior) is uniquely related to sexual behavior, or if it generalizes to other addictions as well. This work will make use of an upcoming study (N=4,000) involving a representative sample of the U.S. population (n=2,500) and a sample of sports-wagering individuals in the U.S. (n=1,500). Results: Interactions between moral disapproval and behavioral frequency will be tested for a variety of behaviors (i.e., pornography use, gambling, and several commonly used substances) to establish whether moral incongruence is related to self-reported feelings of addiction in various domains or if such links are unique to compulsive sexual behaviors. Conclusions: We will draw appropriate conclusions after completion of the project.
