Tragic Moral Conflict in Endangered Species Recovery
Tragic moral conflicts are situations from within which whatever one does—including abstaining from action—will be seriously wrong; even the overall right decision involves violating a moral responsibility.

The relationship between cognitive preoccupation with alcohol and alcohol use in male and female college students
