One of the hotly debated problems in virtue ethics is its empirical inappropriateness that has been raised by situationist social psychologists. Many situationists insist that the character-based explanation of behavior is not empirically supported by the experimental researches of social psychology. In responding to situationism some virtue ethicists pay attention to practical wisdom(phronesis). They intend to defend the existence of character traits while they acknowledge the influence of situation on behavior-decision. According to these virtue ethicists the choice through phronesis has two important features which shows the misunderstanding of situationists on virtue and character traits. Firstly, right actions through phronesis depend on situations since virtuous agents reflect situational features in making a choice. Secondly, right choices through phronesis are not to be consistent in doing a specific action or expressing a specific character trait but to pursue for the good from the perspective of a whole life and to compromise various virtues. This kind of response seems to reveal that situationism is not a fatal criticism on virtue ethics. However it has to pay a price for defending the existence of character traits. It may either give a wrong explanation of behavior or bring about some problems with regard to action-guidingness, motivatingness and moral development. This limitation of the response through phronesis raises a doubt about the relevance of agent-centered moral judgment itself.
