Abstract: The researches of moral intuition had demonstrated emotion’s effect on moral decision-making, researchers had proposed two undivided processes--conscious cognition and unconscious emotion in moral decision-making. By considering the reasons of moral actor and judgment maker, or the factors in moral situations, researchers had paid attention to the questions such as the cognition-emotion explanation and the differences of people’s moral judgments between trolley problem and footbridge problem in recent years. They tried to explore the rationality of the cognition-emotion explanation and the other reasons of the differences of people’s moral decision-making from different views, the researches had formed many new concerns to the domain in the context of moral intuition. Researches in future should probe into questions such as methodology, expansion of situation and the interaction in the cognition and emotion system and so on.
