Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to elucidate some concepts and elements related to moral reasoning. To do so, we first clarify the general concept of reasoning, how it can be classified and its relation to the reasons underlying our actions. Once that has been completed, we will try to show how moral reasoning can be understood, how it relates to moral principles, what mental components can be involved in this type of reasoning, and finally, what possible outcomes are derived from this deliberative process.
