Detailed explanation-1: -There are three production measures of moral reasoning: the Moral Judgment Interview (MJI; Colby and Kohlberg 1987), the Sociomoral Reflection Measure (SRM; Gibbs and Widaman 1982), and the Sociomoral Reflection Measure: Short Form (SRM-SF; Gibbs et al. 1992).
Detailed explanation-2: -Kohlberg studied moral reasoning by presenting subjects with moral dilemmas. He would then categorize and classify the reasoning used in the responses, into one of six distinct stages, grouped into three levels: pre-conventional, conventional and post-conventional.
Detailed explanation-3: -According to Kohlberg’s moral development theory, individuals who reach the post-conventional level live by their own ethical principle, including basic human rights as life, liberty, and justice. They tend to pursue “the greatest good for the greatest number of people”1.
