 The possibility of continuing to think that a certain event is bad, even though the attitude or feeling with which one originally judged the event as bad has partially or even completely dissipated over time may seem incompatible with non-cognitivism. However, it is not clear that this is correct. Stevenson’s account of the meaning of evaluative judgments, given in complex dispositional terms (see  Section 3.2),  allows for considerable variability in terms of the kinds of feelings that may or may not attend a moral judgment. (Similar considerations would apply to the question regarding whether it is possible to hold a moral judgment without being suitably motivated. For discussion, see, e.g., Svavarsdóttir 1999.)
