道德情感尽管是一种心理形式，但其本质存在是社会性的。道德情感不仅有生理和心理基础，更重要的是它反映了社会生活中人们之间的客观利益关系，体现了人性的向善倾向性，深含于人际共生共存的需要之中。并且，道德情感尽管在心理形式上具有一定的稳定性，但其内容是随社会历史条件的变化而变化的。 Although moral emotion is a psychological form, its essence is social. Moral emotion has not only the physical and psychological basis, but more importantly, it reflects the objective interests of people in social life, embodies the propensity of human nature to be good and deeply rooted in the need of interpersonal symbiosis. And although the moral emotion has some stability in the psychological form, its content changes with the change of the social history condition.
