It takes good and evil as the standard, through faith, social public opinion and traditional habits to evaluate and restrain people’s behaviors, action specification used to adjust the relationship among the people and between the individual and society. Moral often represents the positive social value orientation and plays the role of judgment behavior justified or not. Play to the function of moral comprehensive implementation of the moral function.Morality with the understanding, regulating, orientation, education and other functions, has a close association with politics, art, legal and other forms of consciousness. In Chinese traditional culture, gradually formed a virtue based ethics. At all times and in all countries are never a lack of attention to moral issues, people tried to study ethical issues from different angles. Psychology has the moral issue as the focus of the study, from the last century50and60years, the emergence of a large number of outstanding moral psychologists, the formation and development of a lot of fruitful moral theory. Such as Piaget’s moral cognitive development theory, Kohlberg’s stages of moral development, Hadit’s social intuitionist model and Greene’s dual process theory of moral judgment and so on. At present, there are two issues in research ethics theories. First of all, these theories rarely relate to the field of the research on moral judgment. Secondly, also are rarely considered in real life views on moral problems often exist individual differences.At present, overseas about the behavior of immune, perceived vulnerability to disease and other related research achievements are rich. However, Researchers rarely will the behavior of the human body immune to the research of moral judgment.In view of the above problems, this study explores the relationship among the personal clean preference, perceived vulnerability to disease and moral judgment, not only for the study of moral judgment and opens up a new perspective, contributing to the moral judgment theory construction research, but also enriches the behavior of immune related theory, and the behavior of immune foreign theory to get the theoretical validation of new in the process of localization, the research can be better applicable to our country related academic field, therefore has a strong theoretical significance.Our researches use questionnaire survey and experiment methods, and study the relationship between personal clean preference and moral judgment.Using the perceived vulnerability to disease(PVD)questionnaire with moral judgment questionnaire, investigation and analysis are made on the Internet users with the relationship to the clean preference, perceived vulnerability to disease and moral judgment.On the basis of the investigation, according to personal clean preference, the college students were divided into high and low clean preference groups, respectively, were randomly selected from two groups of subjects in half, asking them to wash their hands, then all of the participants were issued moral judgment questionnaire. To further explore the clean behavior in the role of the clean preference and moral judgment.The results show that:(1) Personal clean preference and perceived vulnerability to disease questionnaire scores have significant positive correlation.(2) Perceived vulnerability to disease questionnaire scores and moral judgment scores have significant positive correlation.(3) Personal clean preference and the moral judgment score have significant positive correlation.(4) Perceived vulnerability to disease played a partial intermediary role between personal clean preference and moral judgment.(5) Clean behavior and clean preference will be interactively affect moral judgment. In the condition of hand washing, clean preference of the main effect is remarkable. High clean preference group and low clean preference of the differences in moral judgment will be increased. High clean preference group in moral judgment is more severe than low clean preference subjects. Differences in the personal tendency will be adjusted by the actual clean behavior.(6) In hand washing condition, high clean preference subjects are compared with the state which do not wash their hands, have no significant difference in moral judgment. But low clean preference subjects are much looser in moral judgment.
