Are Large Language Models Moral Hypocrites? A Study Based on Moral Foundations
Open accessAbstract
Large language models (LLMs) have taken centre stage in debates on Artificial Intelligence. Yet there remains a gap in how to assess LLMs' conformity to important human values. In this paper, we investigate whether state-of-the-art LLMs, GPT-4 and Claude 2.1 (Gemini Pro and LLAMA 2 did not generate valid results) are moral hypocrites. We employ two research instruments based on the Moral Foundations Theory: (i) the Moral Foundations Questionnaire (MFQ), which investigates which values are considered morally relevant in abstract moral judgements; and (ii) the Moral Foundations Vignettes (MFVs), which evaluate moral cognition in concrete scenarios related to each moral foundation. We characterise conflicts in values between these different abstractions of moral evaluation as hypocrisy. We found that both models displayed reasonable consistency within each instrument compared to humans, but they displayed contradictory and hypocritical behaviour when we compared the abstract values present in the MFQ to the evaluation of concrete moral violations of the MFV.
Overview
CoChat Summary
TL;DR
The paper tests whether GPT-4 and Claude 2.1 display moral hypocrisy by comparing abstract moral values on the Moral Foundations Questionnaire (MFQ) with concrete moral judgments on the Moral Foundations Vignettes (MFVs). Both models showed within-instrument consistency comparable to humans, but they failed to show coherence across abstraction levels, which the authors characterize as hypocritical behavior.
Key findings
- Both models displayed reasonable consistency within each instrument: GPT-4 had α_MFV = 0.72 and α_MFQ = 0.81; Claude 2.1 had α_MFV = 0.91 and α_MFQ = 0.46; human comparison values were α_MFV = 0.87 and α_MFQ = 0.74.
- Across instruments, the models showed little to no coherent relation between abstract MFQ values and concrete MFV judgments. Most regression models had no significant predictors; when significant, predictors often did not correspond to the matching foundation.
- Regression coefficients of determination were very low for both LLMs (R² < 0.08, except Claude Loyalty and Liberty with R² ≈ 0.10), compared with human respondents in Clifford et al. (2015), where R² ∈ [0.17, 0.38].
- The authors conclude that GPT-4 and Claude 2.1 behaved as moral hypocrites in the experiment: consistent within instruments but incoherent between abstract values and concrete moral evaluations.
Methods
- The study used two Moral Foundations Theory instruments: the MFQ30 for abstract moral values and 68 Moral Foundations Vignettes for concrete moral violations, with human comparison data from Clifford et al. (2015) and Marques et al. (2020).
- Four state-of-the-art LLMs were initially selected: GPT-4 (gpt-4-0613), Claude 2.1, Gemini Pro, and LLAMA-2-Chat-70b. Only GPT-4 and Claude 2.1 generated valid outputs; Gemini Pro and LLAMA 2 were dropped due to invalid or token-limit-exceeding outputs.
- The experiment ran two order conditions, VQ (MFV first) and QV (MFQ first), with 100 responses per condition per model. Valid responses were Claude 2.1: QV 99, VQ 59, total 158; GPT-4: QV 100, VQ 89, total 189.
- Analysis used Cronbach’s α for within-instrument consistency, two-way ANOVAs, and ordinary linear regressions predicting MFV ratings from MFQ measures, following Clifford et al. (2015).
Limitations
- The paper states that only two commercial LLMs were analyzed, and the open-source LLAMA 2.1 model could not produce valid results under the study’s criteria.
- The authors note that future work should explore scaling trends, other open models, prompting styles, and temperature settings, since there is no agreed-upon procedure for questionnaire-style prompting and small prompt changes may significantly alter results.
- The study is based on a single task—answering questionnaires with one prompt structure—so the authors call for future research on different tasks and evaluation methods.
- Evident from the text: Gemini Pro was discarded after all but three outputs were invalid, and Claude 2.1 showed a large valid-response imbalance between QV and VQ conditions (99 vs. 59), which may affect interpretation.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-11-13, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-11-13 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
