|
is the first stage of moral development, and lasts untilapproximately age 9. |

children don’t have a personalcode of morality, and instead moral decisions are shaped by the standards of adultsand the consequences of following or breaking their rules. |
Preconventional morality |
|
Obedience and Punishment Orientation. |

|
The child/individual is good in orderto avoid being punished. If a person is punished, they must have done wrong. |
Obedience and Punishment Orientation. |
|

At this stage, children recognize that there isnot just one right view that is handed down by the authorities. Different individuals havedifferent viewpoints. |

|
is the second stage of moral development, and is characterizedby an acceptance of social rules concerning right and wrong. |
Conventional morality |
|

• Stage 3. |
|

Universal Principles. |
|
Most of the dilemmas are unfamiliar to most people (Rosen, 1980). For example, it is allvery well in the Heinz dilemma asking subjects whether Heinz should steal the drug tosave his wife. |
The dilemmas are artificial |
|
According to Gilligan (1977), because Kohlberg’s theory was based on an all-malesample, the stages reflect a male definition of morality (it’s androcentric). Mens' moralityis based on abstract principles of law and justice, while womens' is based on principles ofcompassion and care. |
The sample is biased |
|
In a real situation, what course of action a person takes will have real consequences –and sometimes very unpleasant ones for themselves. Would subjects reason in the sameway if they were placed in a real situation? We just don’t know. |
The dilemmas are hypothetical |
|
The way in which Kohlberg carried out his research when constructing this theory maynot have been the best way to test whether all children follow the same sequence ofstage progression. |
Poor research design |
|
His research was ____________________, meaning that he interviewed children of different agesto see what level of moral development they were at. |
cross-sectional |

Vygotsky believed that children at birth have a number of innate abilities and called them _____________ |
elementary mental functions. |
|
formulated theEcological Systems Theory to explainhow social environments affectchildren’s development. |
UrieBronfenbrenner |
|
This theoryemphasizes the importance of studyingchildren in multiple environments,known as ecological systems, in theattempt to understand theirdevelopment. |
Bronfenbrenner’s Ecological Theory |
|
is the first level ofBronfenbrenner's theory, and are the thingsthat have direct contact with the child intheir immediate environment, such asparents, siblings, teachers and school peers. |
The Microsystem |
|
the child can beinfluenced by other people in theirenvironment and is also capable of changing the beliefs and actions of otherpeople too. |
Bi-directional |
|
this layer provides the connection between the structures of thechild’s microsystem |
The mesosystem |
|
is where a person's individual microsystems donot function independently, but are interconnected and assert influence upon oneanother. |
The mesosystem |
|
encompasses the interactions between the child’s microsystems, suchas the interactions between the child’s parents and teachers, or between schoolpeers and siblings. |
The mesosystem |
|
this layer defines the largersocial system in which the child does notfunction directly. |
The exosystem |
|
It incorporates other formal and informal socialstructures, which do not themselves contain the child, but indirectly influence themas they affect one of the microsystems. |
Exosystem |
|
this layer may beconsidered the outermost layer in thechild’s environment. |
