HA
HeteronomyAuthoritarian and constrained thoughts
AutonomySystematic, critical and holistic searching
Reflexes or emotional reactions (Dominated by one automatic thought) - I want to please my parents!
- My friends are important!
- Future kids should have parents they are proud of!
- A beautiful wife will impress my friends!
Valid, relevant values, interests etc. (Who is affected? What are their values?) - Which woman has what is needed for a long-term
marriage?
- Is it better to please family and friends of myself?
- Who will make a better wife and mother?
Dogmatic and uncritical thoughts(Fixation to one important principle) - I should marry someone who likes my friends!
- I should marry a girl my parents approve!
- Obviously I should marry who is most beautiful!
- My wife should be able to cook!
Possible actions and values (What can be done? How are all values affected?) - Marry a calm woman, less arguments and more
acceptance of my behavior?
- Choose a woman who my parents like, once my parents happy I’ll also be happy?

Evaluation
• The Tools are useful for us to identifying interests/values as well as identifying risks with different decisions.
• It would seem like the order of business is the following: First you start with the OLE, depending a bit on the type of problem you have, it seems to be formulated for projects and IT use so we could not use it for our problem. Next one uses the HA, to identify Heteronomy and Autonomy sides, to find interests and principles. These one can later input into the AT, EthXpert or ColLab. Even though the AT is simple in its layout it will soon turn very messy as one tries to have many interests. From our point of view it seems almost simpler to attack the ColLab instantly.
• Both ColLab and EthXpert seems to simplify the Autonomy method, but the better one is ColLab since then it is web deployed and there is a possibility of collaborating with others on these projects, they worked well according to us. The autonomy method is very helpful in decision making and ColLab highlights and simplifies it so that one can perform it with ease.
• Some notes on possible improvements: First regarding the AT if you do it on a computer it would most likely to be better if one replaces the columns and rows, since for the most part there are more interests than there are possible options. Secondly there could be an export function to Excel in both EthXpert and ColLab.
