Detailed explanation-1: -The first level of Kohlberg’s theory is called preconventional morality and marks a period beginning in childhood where an individual has not yet adopted the moral principles of their society or culture. Individuals at this level judge the morality of a particular behavior or action by its consequences.
Detailed explanation-2: -Level 1 (Preconventional) Obedience and Punishment Orientation – at this stage of moral reasoning, the individual acts from a belief that if they do something wrong they will be punished, so that the best reason for avoiding doing wrong is to avoid punishment.
Detailed explanation-3: -Stage 6 (Universal Principles): Kohlberg’s final level of moral reasoning is based on universal ethical principles and abstract reasoning. At this stage, people follow these internalized principles of justice, even if they conflict with laws and rules.
Detailed explanation-4: -According to Kohlberg’s theory, individuals who reach the highest level of post-conventional moral reasoning judge moral issues based on deeper principles and shared ideals rather than self-interest or adherence to laws and rules.
