Lawrence Kohlberg gained fame for proposing a developmental model of moral decision-making that included children, adolescents, and adults. List, in the appropriate order, each of the three levels of morality, and include each of the substages that belong in each level. Provide a brief (one or two-sentence explanation) of each level and stage
What will be an ideal response?
The levels are (a) preconventional, (b) conventional, and (c) postconventional morality. In the first level, the substages are the obedience orientation (what is moral is that which avoids punishment) and the instrumental orientation (it is moral to engage in behaviors that look out for your own needs). In the second level the substages are the interpersonal norms (the "good boy/good girl" orientation, where morality is based on winning the approval of others) and social systems morality stages (where there is a belief and adherence to laws, rules, and social expectations). In the third level, the first substage is the social contract stage (where there is an acceptance that laws are for the good of all society but may become situationally invalid). The second postconventional stage is not given a name in this chapter, but it emphasizes the abstract principles of justice, compassion and equality.
