Describe how the integration of emotion into thinking changes through the stages of reflective judgment
What will be an ideal response?
There are differences between how late adolescents or young adults view an emotionally charged issue compared with the views of middle-aged adults. Younger people may view unethical behavior at work as completely inexcusable, with firing of the employee an inescapable outcome. Middle-aged adults may take the contextual factors into account and consider what factors may have forced the person to engage in the behavior. Middle-aged adults are better able to integrate emotion into thinking than late adolescents or young adults.
