Preconventional reasoning Kohlberg ✔✔Stage 1: (Heteronomous morality)
*Moral thinking is often tied to punishment. For example, children
and adolescents obey adults because adults tell them to obey.
Stage2:(Individualism, instrumental purpose, and exchange)
*Individuals pursue their own interests but also let others do the same.
Thus, what is right involves an equal exchange. People are nice to
others so that others will be nice to them in return.
conventional reasoning Kohlberg ✔✔Stage3:(Mutual interpersonal expectations, relationships,
and interpersonal conformity)
*individuals value trust, caring, and loyalty to others as a basis of moral judgments. Children and
adolescents often adopt their parents' moral standards at this stage, seeking to be thought of by
their parents as a "good girl" or a "good boy."
Stage4:(Social systems morality)
*moral judgments are based on understanding the social order, law, justice, and duty.
*For example, adolescents may reason that in order for a community to work effectively, it needs
to be protected by laws that are adhered to by its members.
Postconventional reasoning Kohlberg ✔✔Stage5: (Social contract or utility and individual rights)
*Individuals reason that values, rights, and principles undergird or transcend the law.
*A person evaluates the validity of actual laws and examines social systems in terms of the degree
to which they preserve and protect fundamental human rights and values.
Stage6. (Universal ethical principles)
*The person has developed a moral standard based on universal human rights.
*When faced with a conflict between law and conscience, the person will follow conscience, even
though the decision might involve personal risk.
