	Kohlberg and Piaget
		Kohlberg reasoned that these would presuppose advances in the realms of "logical and social thought" (Crain, 1992: 149), and that upon realization of the inferiority of a stage, this would be integrated into a higher, cognitively and morally more adequate stage.
		To be true, Kohlberg's theory is based on the assumption that, contrary to Piaget's claim of a single-step procession from moral autonomy to heteronomy, a person's moral development closely mirrors her/his "gradually widening social radius", in which changing power structures between individuals engaged in social interactions are seen as a major influence.
		Claiming that in his testing Kohlberg did not account for the alleged difference in male and female moral orientations, she attempted to show that through inherent gender differences and due to context-based processes of socialization, women argue from a care-based moral system as opposed to the rights-based system towards which Kohlberg's research was inclined.

	Kohlberg's Moral Stages
		Kohlberg is an informal, unassuming man who also is a true scholar; he has thought long and deeply about a wide range of issues in both psychology and philosophy and has done much to help others appreciate the wisdom of many of the "old psychologists," such as Rousseau, John Dewey, and James Mark Baldwin.
		Stage 4 respondents, in contrast, have a conception of the function of laws for society as a whole--a conception which far exceeds the grasp of the younger child.
		Stage 5 respondents basically believe that a good society is best conceived as a social contract into which people freely enter to work toward the benefit of all They recognize that different social groups within a society will have different values, but they believe that all rational people would agree on two points.

		I just ran across a reference to Lawrence Kohlberg’s stages of moral development, and was immediately intrigued enough to spend my attention span learning just enough to mistakenly be sure that I know something about the subject.
		Kohlberg was a follower of Jean Piaget, and extended Piaget’s model of moral development in children from two to six stages:
		Furthermore, a person advances through these stages not by simple learning, but by thinking about moral problems, especially ones that don’t comfortably fit in the current model, e.g., if the child is at the “the law is the law” stage: “John’s son was hurt, so John drove him to the hospital.

		Kohlberg's (1976) theory of morality argues that moral development is guided by cognitive needs and a wish to understand the reality of the world, in which there is a strong compulsion to conform.
		He argues that everyone proceeds through these stages in the same order, and also that progression is reliant on suitable levels of cognitive development, and for this reason not everyone reaches level 3.

		Kohlbergs work relies heavily on Piaget's: Our psychological theory of morality derives largely from Piaget, who claims that both logic and morality develop through stages and that each stage is a structure which, formally considered, is in better equilibrium than its predecessor.
		Kohlbergs stages were defined in terms of free responses to ten hypothetical moral dilemmas.21 But while the answers may be free, the questions are based upon philosophical assumptions and contain concepts that belong to certain sets of ethical theories, but not to others.
		Persons at Kohlbergs two lowest stage of moral development are characterized in terms of their own interests and their regard or lack of regard for the interests of others.

	The Meaning and Measurement of Moral Judgment Competence Revisited - A Dual-Aspect Model
		Kohlberg also laid the grounds for objectively measuring moral competencies, which had been, and still are, considered to be non-existing.
