Addition of a "morality" tag

Question

I just added a morality tag. I felt that it was necessary because (a) we were starting to get a few questions about moral psychology; and (b) moral psychology is a legitimate and substantial subfield of psychology.

I added an initial tag excerpt:

For questions about moral reasoning, moral development, and the psychology of morality in general. Note that questions about whether something is or is not moral is typically more of a philosophical question, and will often not be suited to this site.

I tried to make it clear that the site is not really concerned with issues of whether something is or is not moral.

I thought I'd get comments and thoughts of others in case there were any issues.

I also wasn't quite sure whether moral-psychology would be a better name for the tag?

Answer 1

I'd prefer moral-psychology (similar to clinical-psychology, political-psychology etc.). We don't have a politics, disorder or dysfunction tag, either. In general I'd say, create tags for the fields of psychology first, not for the overall-subjects of those fields. Only create specific topic tags to differentiate multiple aspects of a field of psychology (e.g. bipolar-disorder). Thus, the tag moral-psychology could, if necessary, be complemented by tags such as moral-development or egoism.
