Lawrence
Kohlberg created the stages of moral development. In this theory
explains that moral reasoning has six developmental stages. Kohlberg
theory was further grouped into three levels with two stages each. The
first level is called the pre-conventional. The first stage of this
level is obedience and learning how to avoid punishment and the second
is the self-interest where the individual is motivated by moral judgment
that satisfies his/her own needs. The second level is called the
conventional level. The first stage is the avoidance of disapproval or
rejection of others. The second stage is more focused on a need not to
be criticized by authority. The final level is called post-conventional.
The first stage is motivated by the respect of social order and laws. The
second stage is motivated by an individual’s conscience. It is said
that you cannot regress in stages nor can you skip stages because each
stage provides new perspective.
