According to James Rest, ethical decision making developed from a desire to bring together theories and research on moral development and behavior from a variety of perspectives. Moral judgment, moral motivation and moral sensitivity. Moral judgment refers to defining and evaluating which possible answers to the ethical question have a moral defense. This progression in the process requires thinking about conceivable decisions and potential outcomes to understand which are morally stable.

This component of ethical decision making involves a commitment to choosing moral value.
