What does research say about Kholberg's theory of moral dev?
Research supports slow, progressive development
-By early adolescence move from Stage 1 and 2 toward Stage 3 by mid-adolescence on to Stage 4 in late adolescent and young adulthood
-Evidence suggests few move to Stage 5 and Stage 6, as he conceived it hasn’t been clearly identified

-Gibbs (1991, 2010) argues conventional level is more than just social conformity and encompasses valuing of reciprocity and understanding of socially agreed upon values
