I agree that the BBC test, http://www.bbc.co.uk/labuk/experiments/morality, is a good starting point and I will take up the suggestion to do some of the standardised test examples provided in the article and then, in time, review them.

The overall results are similar to my gut feeling
Dimensions of moral response - Higher or Lower than Average
  • Wrongness - Higher
  • Anger - Lower
  • Disgust - Lower
  • Desire to Avoid - Higher
  • Desire to Punish - Lower
