Kwan (2023) constructed two non-overlapping batteries of 40 moral cases each, generated by separate teams blind to one another's items and sharing no surface features. Individual-level correlation of aggregate permissiveness scores across batteries was r=0.58 (N=2,210), similar to the r=0.55 typically observed between visual and haptic size estimation in the same individuals.
