Piaget's Theory of Moral Development

- Concluded that children go through two distinct stages, separated by a transition period, in how they think about morality
- Heteronomous mortality: The first stage of moral development in Piaget's theory, occurring from 4 to 7 years of age. Justice and rules are conceived of as unchangeable properties of the world, beyond the control of people.
- autonomous: The second stage of moral development in Piaget's theory, displayed by older children (about 10 years of age and older). The child becomes aware that rules and laws are created by people and that, in judging an action, one should consider the actor's intentions as well as the consequences.
- Immanent justice: Piaget's concept of the childhood expectation that if a rule is broken, punishment will be meted out immediately.

Kohlberg's Theory of Moral Development

o Level 1
- Pre-conventional morality
- Stage 1: Obedience and punishment: behavior driven by avoiding punishment
- Stage 2: Individual interest: behavior driven by self-interest and rewards
o Level 2
- Conventional morality
- Stage 3: Interpersonal: behavior driven by social approval
- Stage 4: Authority: behavior driven by obeying authority and conforming to social order
o Level 3
- Post-conventional morality
- Stage 5 : Social contract: behavior driven by balance of social order and individual rights
- Stage 6: Universal ethics: behavior driven by internal moral principles
- First stages develop in all cultures but not the last four

Basic Processes of Moral Behavior

- Social cognitive theory

Social cognitive theory

- Positive Feelings, such as empathy contribute to the child's moral development

- Damon's description of developmental changes in empathy

Contemporary Perspective

" Moral personality
o Three aspects of moral personality:
" Moral identity: You are a person who never does...
" Moral character: How you will showcase things, The kind of characteristics you have
" Moral exemplars: Individuals who will showcase behavior who have internalized morality
