	Lawrence Kohlberg
		Lawrence Kohlberg was born in Bronxville, New York on October 25, 1927.
		Kohlberg also observed that there is a stage 4½ or 4+ which is a transition from stage 4 to stage 5.

	Kohlberg's stages of moral development - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Kohlberg's stages of moral development were conceived by Lawrence Kohlberg to explain the development of moral reasoning.
		Kohlberg expanded considerably on this groundwork, determining that the process of moral development was principally concerned with justice and that its development continued throughout the lifespan
		Kohlberg identifies two of these operations in "equality" and "reciprocity", which respectively involve an impartial regard for persons (i.e., irrespective of who the individual persons are), and a regard for the role of personal merit.

	Who Was Lawrence Kohlberg?
		Lawrence Kohlberg was influenced by the work of Jean Piaget, a psychologist who developed a stage theory for the cognitive development of children.
		Lawrence Kohlberg believed that moral thinking progressed through a series of six stages, which could be grouped into three general stages.
		Lawrence Kohlberg believed that very few adults reach this point; in fact, his research provided so few people at this stage that he was unable to fully describe it in his theories.

	KOHLBERG'S THEORY OF MORAL DEVELOPMENT (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Lawrence Kohlberg was, for many years, a professor at Harvard University.
		Kohlberg believed...and was able to demonstrate through studies...that people progressed in their moral reasoning (i.e., in their bases for ethical behavior) through a series of stages.
		Thus, according to Kohlberg, it was important to present them with moral dilemmas for discussion which would help them to see the reasonableness of a "higher stage" morality and encourage their development in that direction.

	Kohlberg's Moral Stages
		Kohlberg, who was born in 1927, grew up in Bronxville, New York, and attended the Andover Academy in Massachusetts, a private high school for bright and usually wealthy students.
		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.
		Kohlberg's response is that different cultures do teach different beliefs, but that his stages refer not to specific beliefs but to underlying modes of reasoning (Kohlberg and Gilligan, 197 1).

		In 1973 Kohlberg developed a tropical disease, and while hospitalized in 1987, was reported missing on January 17.
		Kohlberg was a psychologist who applied the developmental approach of Jean Piaget, who he studied under, to the analysis of changes in moral reasoning.
		Influenced by Piaget's concept of stages, Kohlberg's theory was created based on the idea that stages of moral development build on each other in order of importance and significance to the person.

		In 1958, Lawrence Kohlberg published a study that broke with both the positivists and behaviorists by presenting a theory of moral development (bringing together science and moral values) based on cognitive reasoning (rather than behavior).
		Kohlberg's theory initiated an entirely new field of study in Western science that gained momentum in the 1960s and 1970s and continues to inspire new research today.
		Kohlberg claimed that his stages of moral development are universal, applying equally to all human beings across cultural divisions.

		Lawrence Kohlberg was born in Bronxville, New York, and received his B.A. (1948) and Ph.D. (1958) from the University of Chicago.
		Kohlberg points out that many people never pass beyond the conventional level, and that the most clearly principled response at Stage 6 was expressed by fewer than 10 percent of adolescents over the age of 16.
		Kohlberg's system is closely related to Piaget's theories, both in its emphasis on cognitive development and in its designation of a chronological series of stages, each dependent on the preceding ones.

	Lawrence Kohlberg
		Kohlberg’s work aids both our understanding of the ways in which individuals make moral decisions, and demands that we use a more discerning system to critique the systems of justice that are in place in our societies.
		Kohlberg’s work began to view the “child as a moral philosopher” and broke from psychoanalytic traditions that viewed children simply as the recipient of their parents’ moral values and the behaviorist tradition that viewed moral decisions solely as a system of rewards and punishments.
		Kohlberg argued the children’s moral thinking was influenced instead by social relationships and emotions, such as empathy, love, respect and attachment.

	Lawrence Kohlberg's Stages of Moral Development
		Kohlberg's contribution was entitled "The concepts of Developmental Psychology as the Central Guide to Education: Examples from Cognitive, Moral, and Psychological Education." The document is further marked "A publication of the Leadership Training Institute/Special education, sponsored by the Bureau of Educational Personnel Development, U.S. Office of Education".
		Kohlberg contrasts Stage 0 with other theories in a couple of other tables in the article, so he may have made a "custom alteration" to the theory for the purpose of this particular set of comparisons.
		Gilligan argues that Kohlberg’s rule-oriented conception of morality has an orientation toward justice, which she associates with stereotypically male thinking, whereas women and girls are perhaps more likely to approach moral dilemmas with a "care" orientation.

		Kohlberg fine tuned his doctorial work and went on to write and publish additional essays and books on the stages of moral development during the 1970’s and 1980’s, a time when many were seeking psychological wellbeing through regular visits to psychiatrists with some getting “hooked on mother’s little helper” (the Rolling Stones reference to valium).
		Although Kohlberg is gone, he is still cited and referred to by psychologists in a variety of disciplines to include those involved in the study and treatment of aberrant and deviant behavior.
		Kohlberg described this stage as the “official morality of the United States.” He believed it was the foundation for American democracy and government, pointing out that the premise of the Declaration of Independence and Constitution is for citizens to oversee and challenge government.

	Kohlberg's stages of moral development - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Carol Gilligan has argued that Kohlberg's theory is overly androcentric.
		Kohlberg's theory was initially developed based on empirical research using only male participants; Gilligan argued that it did not adequately describe the concerns of women.
		Given this, the arguments that Kohlberg and other rationalist psychologists have analyzed could be considered post hoc rationalizations of intuitive decisions.

	Just Community Approach to Cate
		She concluded that Kohlberg's moral development theory was biased against females because his male longitudinal sample and personal fixation on justice led him to dismiss the morality of care as a relatively immature (stage 3) phenomenon.
		In Kohlberg's view, caring and justice are not two moralities that become connected later in the life cycle, but facets of the same morality.
		Kohlberg's appreciation for the value of care is clear in his insistence that the optimal setting for the development of justice is in a community in which all members are committed to caring for each other.

	An Overview of Moral Development and Moral Education
		Kohlberg followed the development of moral judgment beyond the ages studied by Piaget, and determined that the process of attaining moral maturity took longer and was more gradual than Piaget had proposed.
		Kohlberg rejected the focus on values and virtues, not only due to the lack of consensus on what virtues are to be taught, but also because of the complex nature of practicing such virtues.
		It was Turiel's insight to recognize that what Kohlberg's theory attempts to account for within a single developmental framework is in fact the set of age-related efforts people make at different points in development to coordinate their social normative understandings from several different domains.

		Kohlberg was one of the first people to look seriously at whether a person's ability to deal with ethical issues can develop in later life and whether education can affect that development.
		Kohlberg found that a person's ability to deal with moral issues is not formed all at once.
		Kohlberg discovered that when his subjects took courses in ethics and these courses challenged them to look at issues from a universal point of view, they tended to move upward through the levels.
