Question

Which of the following statements best describes Kohlberg's theory of moral development? Humans move through four periods of development: the sensorimotor stage, the preoperational stage, the concrete operational stage, and the formal operational stage. Individuals must learn to balance three subconscious drives: the id, the ego, and the superego. Individuals move through three stages of moral reasoning: preconventional, conventional, and postconventional. Men view actions in terms of right and wrong, whereas women view the world through a care and responsibility perspective

Explanation / Answer

Answer: Individuals move through three stages of moral reasoning: preconventional, conventional, and postconventional.

These three stages are referred to as pre conventional morality, conventional morality as well as post conventional morality. As a person progresses from one stage to the other, every new stage would replace the reasoning that is present in the earlier stage. Not every person can attain all the stages of reasoning.
